Throughout his career, David Bowie was influential, interconnected, and inescapable. Exhaustively researched from thousands of sources by BBC reporter Tom Hagler this illustrated collection of 300 vignettes tells the stories of Bowie's encounters with fellow icons, as he embarrasses himself in front of John Lennon and Andy Warhol, saves the life of Nina Simone, and teaches Michael Jackson to moonwalk. Adding depth to our understanding of this unique yet multifaceted artist, here too are meetings with Little Richard, Bob Dylan, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Rotten, Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, and Queen Elizabeth II.
