Autobiography

[bigbadjack]

Can anyone suggest a good autobiography to get into just finished Keith Richards, and lemmys white line fever

Keith Moon: Dear Boy

Quite a long book, but I thought it was excellent and preferred it to Keefs.

Keith Moon: Dear Boy

Quite a long book, but I thought it was excellent and preferred it to Keefs.

Was it Ghost Written?

I really should stop skim reading!!

Still, a bloody good read though.

Ozzy's weren't bad, Bear Grylls was ok, Michael J. Fox's was excellent, and JR's is well worth it, if you haven't already of course

I've just read Paul mcgraths. Unbelievable the stuff that has gone on in his life. It's a really great read.

I read George Best's 'Blessed' a while back. He was a bit of an alky you know.

Neil Redfearn's 'There's Only One Neil redfearn' is a good, he speaks quite highly of Rovers in a somewhat difficult period in our history, Gary Nelson's Left Foot Forward and Steve Claridge's is also a good read (suprisingly). Chris Hoy if you are einterested in cycling and/or what you need to do to get to the top in your sport. Ray Davies, X-Ray, for a music one.

I'm not a cricket fan but I have read Dickie Bird's autobiography it is. His personality really does shine through and really shows the type of character he is

I read the following on holiday.

Stan Collymore 9/10
Paul Merson 8/10
Steven gerrard 7/10
Jonny Nelson 5/10

I was hooked on Stan's, really honest and I read it in a day!

anthony kiedis - (chilli peppers lead singer), great read, and some cracking stories. Gives you a great insight into his music.

[Old Popsider]

Steve Wignall -" You can have chips-The Autobiography". Great read!

[RobTheRover]

Get Jim Bob 's account of on tour with Carter USM. It's very good,  and very funny. Especially if you were around that indie scene in the late 80s/early 90s

I read Slash' s autobiography last year and really enjoyed that too.

Margrave of the Marshes (John Peel)  is good too. 

I've got all three at home if you want to borrow them,  Jack.

[jucyberry]

Not a single autobiography as such, a collective story and one of the most powerful, thought provoking, incredible books that I have ever read...
The Good Women Of China: Hidden Voices by Xinran..

Don't dismiss this as a womans book, because it isn't, it is a story of  humanity and the lack of faced by countless generations of women in China.

I've got loads of autobiographies,football,boxing,true crime selling the cheap to make room for some more if anybody's interested,Stanley Matthews book was a really good read,i couldn't put it down,just read Lucas Radebe's book pretty good.
