Peter Ames Carlin, just released the most comprehensive book on the life of one of Rock and Roll's lasting legends, Bruce Springsteen. Peter spoke with Bruce's mom Adele, as well as his friends, his family, ex-girlfriends and band mates.
There have been many books on Springsteen's life but none ever had the blessing of Bruce Springsteen himself. In "Bruce" by Peter Ames Carlin, he talks about he and his father's troubled relationship growing up as a kid in New Jersey, he talks about his own battle with depression, his short lived marriage to Julianne Phillips, his life with wife Patti Scialfa, and his little encounter with Janis Joplin as a teenager (it kind of scared the crap out of him). This is one of the books you will not be able to put down. As I told Peter, I can't wait to devour it!
Peter has also written books on Brian Wilson and Paul McCartney.
