With the passage of time, things only guessed at in the past can be fully laid out and the eye-popping surprises are on every page. It's far and away the best rewrite/update book I've ever read. For those of us Skynyrd fans, the book is a must-read. For those who want a keen and interesting l. MUST-HAVE & INCREDIBLE STORY FOR ANYONE WHO LOVES MUSIC, EVEN IF YOU DON'T CARE FOR LYNYRD SKYNYRD Brad Nealon This is by far the best biography available on bookshelves about Skynyrd, and goes well beyond the music and fame of the band to show the world how much each band member were just like you and meFilled with commentary from former band members and close friends & family members, their story is told in great detail from their high school formation to the plane crash that haulted a band at the pinnacle of their career, whose potential will never be known but rather pondered upon for decades to comeThe way Ronnie VanZant and company handl.
