Why read it?
1 author picked Catch a Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Although technically a biography, I view this book in the vein of mystery in many ways as it tells a compelling story of one of my most-admired musical/political heroes.

From William's list on mystery, intrigue and creative historical content.
