Download or read book Jim Morrison written by Stephen Davis and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-06-16 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the lead singer of the Doors, Jim Morrison’s searing poetic vision and voracious appetite for sexual, spiritual, and psychedelic experience inflamed the spirit and psyche of a generation. Since his mysterious death in 1971, millions more fans from a new generation have embraced his legacy, as layers of myth have gathered to enshroud the life, career, and true character of the man who was James Douglas Morrison. In Jim Morrison, critically acclaimed journalist Stephen Davis, author of Hammer of the Gods, unmasks Morrison’s constructed personas of the Lizard King and Mr. Mojo Risin’ to reveal a man of fierce intelligence whose own destructive tendencies both fueled his creative ambitions and brought about his downfall. Gathered from dozens of original interviews and investigations of Morrison’s personal journals, Davis has assembled a vivid portrait of a misunderstood genius, tracing the arc of Morrison’s life from his troubled youth to his international stardom, when his drug and alcohol binges, tumultuous sexual affairs, and fractious personal relationships reached a frenzied peak. For the first time, Davis is able to reconstruct Morrison’s last days in Paris to solve one of the greatest mysteries in music history in a shocking final chapter. Compelling and harrowing, intimate and revelatory, Jim Morrison is the definitive biography of the rock idol in snakeskin and leather who defined the 1960s.

Download or read book Brian Jones written by Laura Jackson and published by Piatkus. This book was released on 2011-12-20 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this definitive biography of Brian Jones, Laura Jackson - the first to insist that Jones was murdered and the first to identify his killer - rejects the stereotype of a narcissistic rock star who was doomed to self-destruct. Instead, she spoke to the people who knew him best: his family and friends, girlfriends and confidantes, the musicians and friends who lived and worked with him right up until his death in 1969. Jones emerges as a man of immense talent, energy and humour, but crippled by insecurities and shyness - a portrayal greatly at odds with the sordid rumours that plagued him throughout his life, which continue to this day. Jackson provides new testimony on the rivalries within the Rolling Stones and the bitter final split, together with telling details from the pathology and coroner's reports, to tell the story behind the headlines and get to the heart of the mysterious death of Brian Jones.
Download or read book Bodies written by Gillian Bennett and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because they are so often told as news, contemporary legends force us to reevaluate life as we know it. They confront us with macabre, fantastic, horrific, or hilarious characters and events that seem to come straight out of myths and folktales, but are presented as present day events. The difficulty is that it is not at all easy to decide whether these often disturbing stories should be treated as reliable or dismissed as fantasy. The legends explored in this book are some of the most bizarre, gruesome, and politically sensitive stories in the contemporary legend canon. At any moment a body may be invaded by noxious creatures, deliberately infected with deadly disease, or raided to provide donor organs for sick foreigners. These are "winter's tales," the stuff of nightmares. In this book Gillian Bennett traces the cultural history of six legends, well-known in Europe and America from medieval times to the present day. Appearing in broadsides, ballads, myths, ancient and modern legends, novels, plays, films, television shows, and stories told in the oral tradition, these legends are not just silly tales which can be dismissed as trivial and untrue. They reveal much about the concerns and fears of everyday life and demonstrate the limits of knowledge and power in the modern world.

Download or read book Kushtaka written by Jay Border and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-05-19 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep in the Southeast Alaskan Rainforest lies a vast vein of raw gold that is unclaimed for a reason, it lies on Cursed Ground. The Bay of Death earned its name when a huge landslide wiped out a village of five hundred Alaskan Natives back before Russian contact. It was no ordinary village and the landslide no accident. The Kusaxa Kwaan were the cannibals of the realm and the landslide was caused by the other tribes of the area and they thought they had wiped their problems off the face of the Earth. Now the spirits of the Kusaxa Kwaan have adhered with the Kushtaka, the Land Otter Man, the changelings of Tlingit Mythology and they guard the treasure from any outsiders that seek it. No one visits the Bay of Death anymore so the vein sleeps and waits for a dreamer to come its way. Enter Jace Morgan, Alaska's most famous cartoonist. He has been obsessed with Thomas Bay since he was a child growing up on his Foster Parents fishing boat and his obsession leads him to the Bay alone, where he finds a Gold Nugget that is crudely fashioned into a tiny idol. Soon the voices in his head begin to drive him mad and the nightmares drive him back to face the ancient evil he has re-awakened in The Bay of Death. As it waits for him, with sharp, pointed teeth.
