Here is the first complete, no-holds-barred biography of the late, great self-made Essex lad himself! The abrasive Dury always met life head on, in his relationships and in his music and this great biography does not shrink from chronicling some of his darker moments as well as his triumphs.
Dury's extraordinary life was always a battle. As a rocker, lyricist, artist and actor he was unsentimental and uncompromising. As a man he was harder to fathom - until now. In a rock biography destined to become a classic, the self-styled "diamond geezer" stands revealed as a real diamond after all.
