Book Overview
This detailed biography tracks the meteoric rise and tumultuous history of this seminal group and its enigmatic leader, Eddie Vedder. Noted rock chronicler Martin Clarke explores Pearl Jam's reaction to its massive popularity, its triumphs at the MTV and Grammy awards, its notorious rift with Nirvana, its creative rebirth with the acclaimed album No Code, and its recent chart-topping return to form Backspacer. Extraordinary successes are counterpointed with scandals, personnel changes, band tensions, and substance abuse, all punctuated with revealing photographs. In Pearl Jam and Eddie Vedder: None Too Fragile, the author brings to life the band's captivating story: they're traced from their beginnings amidst Seattle's grunge underground through the excesses and pressures of superstardom, to the their current incarnation as mature rock heavyweights.

Awesome pics

I purchased this book for a friend- who is a HUGE Pearl Jam fan. He has not read it yet but has skimmed through- he did comment that the pics of Vedder and of the band are great. If you are a Pearl Jam fan- I recommend this book for your collection, if you like Pearl Jam and don't know a lot about Vedder or the bands history- I would recommend it to get some details.
Eddie really is fragile

I loved the way he put into words the emotions spent by the group through out the ordeal with Nirvana. He gave me something more to look for in thier music. Something personal and unique, that devides them from other groups.
Very informative about the history and lives of bandmembers.
