A quick read with fascinating souvenirs from Jim's life. This 'scrapbook' was beautifully constructed, with many never-before-seen photographs and clear details to spell out the creation of Jim Morrison and subsequently, the success of the Doors. I'd recommend this to every Doors fan and especially every Jim Morrison fan.
Sarah Crawford
The contents of this book are incredible. The photos draw you in, and the information it contains is wonderful.
This is probably the best of the scrapbook series books that has been released.
Andree Thynne
This scrapbook features some drawings, poetry, and band memorabilia. A must for any Doors fan, or fan of Jim Morrison.

There is also a copy of the rolling stone interview from back in the day that I would never have gotten to read otherwis...more

Cool. I received this as a birthday present from a friend who I really miss.

I recommend this to every single Jim Morrison’s fan, this isn’t just a biography and not as good (or should I say complete) as “No one here gets out alive” by Jerry Hopkins.

It has a cd with spoken words, birth certificate, obituary, copies of handwriting poetry etc.

I think its well done due to the various perspectives of the major roles in his life: the poet, the band member, the lover (…) and it was done with all the help of everbody surrounding him, friends, family, known ...more
