Important and Fun Read for fans

Great biography and cringe inducing in wonderful ways because Carradine had no issues with making himself out to be who he actually was; no crap, nor artifice just a very sexually attractive, adventurous and talented man who came from a chaotic actors family. Why anyone would read this an expect some kind of moral, biblical redemption is beyond me, this man personifies Hollywood in the 70's while being completely unique and kind of a loner. He was multi-talented, physically awesome and very, very handsome plus he knew it and had fun with it! Children of stars rarely make it to the ripe old age of 72. Had his life not been cut tragically short, its is clear from this read that he'd have been going well into his 90's. Rest in peace David.

Endless Highway by David Carradine

Very well written and extremely detailed autobiography by Carradine. How he remembered all of those details about relationships, marriages, movie and TV shootings is incredible! And all wrapped up chronologically with photos from childhood through his Kung Fu TV days up to the 1995 publishing date - amazing! What floored me most is how honest he is about himself - and his kind of "fast cars, women and drinking" Hollywood lifestyle - a total contrast to the Kwai Chang Caine character and martial arts aficionado he is most famous for. That shows what a talented actor David Carradine truly is and that he is a human being as well as an icon. I found his writing and the book to be honest and entertaining.

honest ,brilliant , and funny

this book is one of the rare books I have read more than once, and everytime I read it, there is always something new to learn about him. it's worth getting even if you have to go throught your pulbic libary to get it!

It was worth my trouble to find it.

It took me a week to read,and enjoyed every minute of it.I like it when he said he's a writer now.I am a unknown writer so I understand.His nickname Pokey as a child was great.His writing was real,you went away from the book with the feeling you know him.Better than the people you really know because they don't write their life story.

Excellent autobio of an interesting and unconventional actor

Colorful and intriguing tale of David's life and career, told in his own inimitable style. Especially recommended for readers who remember him from the original KUNG FU series, or enjoy today's updated version of the series. Despite his reputation as one of Hollywood's "bad boys", particularly in his younger days, David has mellowed in recent years. He pulls no punches and is almost brutally honest in many places, but he applies this same straightforward honesty to his own failures and shortcomings, so it's not just another "look how everyone has screwed me over" story.
