Summary

"Janis Joplin has passed into legend as an impassioned soul doomed by the pain that produced one of the most extraordinary voices in the history of rock 'n' roll. But this intimate new biography shows a woman in command, one who won her place in history by never compromising who she was and how she wanted to express herself. [...] Written by one of the most highly regarded chroniclers of American music history, and based on unprecedented access to Janis Joplin's family, friends, bandmates, personal archives, and long-lost interviews, Janis is a powerful portrait of an American pioneer -- the ultimate woman who persisted, and who is finally getting her due." -- From book jacket flap.
