"Though the legend of James Brown is well covered on the albums, on the Top Ten charts, and in the tabloids, there remains a story beyond the mere chronology of events that has yet to be told. It is the story of a man who grew up black in the segregated South of white America - and whose strength of conviction and force of will were matched only by the powerful demons he battled inside himself. From his childhood memories, to his musical triumphs as he journeyed from gospel to R & B to soul - and then virtually invented funk - to his struggles with inner demons and his most recent troubles with the law, this is the story of James Brown the man, told - as no one else ever could tell it - in his own words."--BOOK JACKET.
