Publisher's Synopsis
Neil Diamond is reputedly a guarded, insecure man, who drove himself to become one of rock music's most popular artistes. This unauthorized biography based on three years of research and interviews examines how Diamond climbed to his rarified position.;More than one hundred people, including many of his key associates and colleagues, were interviewed and they describe a man who can be generous and accessible to his admirers, but who can seem cold and aloof to his critics. The picture that eventually emerges is one of a lonely man, despite his efforts in recent years to bury his "solitary man" image.
