In their own words, they tell his story as it has never been told before, coming their voices to produce a lasting portrait of a generation and a brilliant closeup of one of its legendary heroes. Many of these voices are famous in their own right - those of Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, Gary Snyder. But equally fascinating are the voices of Jack's boyhood friends, a Denver pool hustler, the women who loved and lost him, and the barroom pals who watched him drift toward death.' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***A true first edition of this compelling oral biography of Jack Kerouac. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
