Customer Reviews

Great book on NIRVANA!!

I love this book! It is a very thorough, detailed guide to NIRVANA,and includes some things I had never read on the band and Kurt Cobain (and I have read it all). A definite must have for any NIRVANA fan's collection! I also like that the author includes sections on Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic's years after NIRVANA, and the Kurt Cobain Memorial Committee. Great job!

Great book

This book, with all honesty, is one of the best Nirvana books I have ever read. The author of this book does an excellent job capturing all the important moments (and some of the lesser known moments) throughout Nirvana's history. The book even talks about what happened to Krist and Dave after Kurt's death. Which I thought was pretty cool. Unlike Charles Cross' book Heavier Than Heaven, this book is very accurate and it does not have any errors. I recommend this book to all Nirvana fans; from the die-hard fans to the fresh new fans, The Rough Guide to Nirvana is a must have. Thank you Gillian G. Gaar for writing this book.
