"Reggae's chief eyewitness, dropping testimony on reggae's chief prophet with truth, blood, and fire." --Marlon James, Man Booker Prize-winning author Renowned reggae historian Roger Steffens's riveting oral history of Bob Marley's life draws on four decades of intimate interviews with band members, family, lovers, and confidants--many speaking publicly for the first time. Hailed by the New York Times Book Review as a "crucial voice" in the documentation of Marley's legacy, Steffens spent years traveling with the Wailers and taking iconic photographs. Through eyewitness accounts of vivid scenes--the future star auditioning for Coxson Dodd; the violent confrontation between the Wailers and producer Lee Perry; the attempted assassination (and conspiracy theories that followed); the artist's tragic death from cancer-- So Much Things to Say tells Marley's story like never before. What emerges is a legendary figure "who feels a bit more human" ( The New Yorker ).
