Mick Jagger is one of the dominant cultural figures of our time –
swaggering, strutting, sinister, and mesmerizing – yet he has vowed
never to write his own life story. Now, Christopher Andersen provides an
explosive, compelling, and definitive biography for Stones fans of all
ages. Andersen’s 1993 book, Jagger Unauthorized, made frontpage
headlines. Mick builds on that book with stunning insights and
revelations, new to this book, including:• Jagger’s bisexual history and the list of famous lovers that just keeps growing.
• Mick’s killer instinct for business, which has enabled him to amass a personal fortune of over $400 million.
• Cocaine, LSD, hashish, and speed: Flabbergasting detail about the true extent of Jagger’s substance abuse.
• Jagger’s connections to the Royal Family – continuing today with William and Kate – and the curious
circumstances surrounding his knighthood.
• The threats to Mick’s life, including the chilling details of the assassination attempt the FBI kept secret for decades.
• And, of course, Jagger’s strange, love-hate relationship with Keith Richards, which continues to this day.
Mick is the definitive look at the leader of the world’s greatest rock-and-roll band on the eve of its 50th anniversary, and is destined to become the definitive biography every fan must have.
