Publisher's Synopsis
Includes the BBC Radio 4 serialisation of 'Margrave of the Marshes', John Peel's part-written autobiography completed by his wife, Sheila Ravenscroft, and read by Michael Angelis and Carolyn Pickles, plus a special tribute edition of 'Home Truths' in which Tom Robinson visits Peel Acres to meet John's wife Sheila and their four children. Not many people manage to achieve the status of legend in their own lifetime, and even fewer deserve that status. John Peel was one such, whose contribution to British culture is undeniable. His 40-year career on Radio 1 and Radio 4 reached a huge and diverse audience, and he influenced the musical tastes of millions. Guaranteed to appeal to all John Peel's many devoted fans, this is a perfect reminder of the genius of a man many regarded as the best DJ ever.
