This autobiography of rock musician David Crosby provides a dark account of the pop music counterculture as it describes his drug dependence and eventual imprisonment on gun and drug charges. It traces the story of his career from his early days as an aspiring actor, to his successful recordings with the Byrds and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. As well as Crosby's own voice, charting his eventual triumph over drug addiction, the story is told by his friends and colleagues, including Joni Mitchell, Grace Slick, Graham Nash and Jackson Browne.
