About this listen
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.

Brilliant in accuracy historical content mood of these … our times …and complexity … a must read
All to the last word … moved me to my core … to tears at the end … aloneness of the brilliance of the deception yet incite to alcoholic complexity…

The life of Jim Morrison. Brilliant and tragic.
I have always been fascinated by Jim Morrison. So much myth surrounds him.
He will live forever in his music and poetry.
His death is still shocking on so many levels, especially how the French authorities handled it.
I would recommend this book it’s well researched and you feel you get a good understanding of who Jim was.
