I found this book fascinating. I wasn't much of a doors fan but this book made me look into them a bit more and now I enjoy their music more. This book focuses on Jim Morrison. What an intriguing character he is. He is full of surprises. It covers his life from birth to death quite well in the 395 pages it uses. It includes many references to lyrics and poetry and plenty on Jim's philosophies and
drug use (mostly
cannabis,
LSD and
alcohol).
The book of course also details much about the doors as it became such a huge part of Jim's life. Some curious performances and legal troubles are detailed.
This is a must for fans of the band and intriguing look at the band who try to open the doors of perception and take things to their extreme. Jim Morisson lived loud and left a legacy.
