[Mark]

Easy, quick read. Perfect primer for a causal fan for The Man in Black.

[Harvey]

Funny, nowhere in or on the paperback did it say National Enquirer... Fairly easy read for anyone who is a fan of the Man In Black. Not sure how factual the book is, but the Author did not create a tabloid story. Great for an easy read, short chapters and no need to consult a dictionary.

Johnny Cash is an American Icon and I thought this did a pretty good job with good detail. It seemed relatively unbiased to me.
