Description
James Hetfield is known to us as the ever-present leader of the legendary Metallica. However, in this book we’ll see not only the rock star, but also an ordinary man with emotional wounds and a broken heart.
Having lived through two tragedies in his youth—first his father left the family, and a couple of years later his mother died—James was left alone with his inner demons, which he managed to defeat, but not right away. Before that, the young James found comfort in music and became determined to play in a rock band. Few of his friends believed he would achieve his goal, but today they’re standing in a mile-long line to get into his concert. The quiet, silent, acne-scarred teenager turned out to be a true pioneer of the genre—a voice for an entire generation, an embodiment of America in the ’80s, a hero for millions, an idol and a real authority among his peers.
In writing this book, Mark Eglinton conducted many exclusive interviews with famous rock stars and key figures in Hetfield’s life to present us with the most realistic portrait of the iconic musician.
