5 out of 5 stars A book in his own words   August 11, 2007

This is a great read. It's been years since I've owned it, and I'm glad to have once again run across it. Bob stood for something...for many things. He had ideals, he was real, he was an honest man, and all of that comes through when he speaks. True, these are the words of an entertainer, but if that's the highest label you put on him, you really miss out on who he was and what he has to offer. Some of his views, you may not agree with; but remember that he stood by them, that he didn't back down from them, and more importantly that he lived what he talked. This is a good read, because it's light. If you are reader, like myself, then you can appreciate a lighter read at times, and this will provide that. One more thing, Robert Nesta Marley was more than just a face on a t-shirt or a face on blunt wrappers, he was a man who really made a difference in the world, more than many of the politicians, that talk about change and about rights, Robert Nesta Marley was a man who genuinely cared about people, and when you read the words he spoke all that comes through.
