Catch a Fire

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.

The story of Bob Marley, from his marginalized roots in Nine-Mile to world-renowned reggae artist and Rastafarian proponent of peace, is full of many trials and ordeals, including his own assassination attempt.

Timothy White's extensive research gave me a perspective of Bob that I would not otherwise have known about and took me deep into the life, beliefs, and challenges that Bob faced in his short life on our planet.
