This is one of a series of tomes Colin Escott has produced on Jerry Lee Lewis but does not add a great deal to the general knowledge on the Killer. Jerry Lee Lewis has always been a hard topic to write on, partly because his life has always been much stranger (and wilder) than fiction. And his supporting of cast of characters has also added a level of mayhem to the Killer's life. This, however, never seems to catch the character of Jerry Lee and others and one is required to search further to gain more knowledge of the Ferriday Fireball and what makes him tick. On the plus side, Escott includes an exhaustive discography to allow Jerry Lee completists to see what they are missing. ( )
