The expanded and unabridged 3rd EDITION of "ROBIN, STEVIE NICKS & ME" is an intimate, backward glance at the years 1966-1977; a tumultuous time in this nation's history that defined a generation and forever changed the music and the culture. "ROBIN, STEVIE NICKS & ME" is a brutally honest memoir, at times raw, at times humorous, chronicling the life of poet, novelist, and screenwriter, Jon Christopher. At the same time, it offers a rare look at one of rock & roll's most celebrated icons, Ms. Stevie Nicks. WARNING: Friends and devotees of Stevie Nicks are likely to be offended by some, perhaps all of what they read. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK if you cannot handle the recollections of a man who knew Stevie intimately. Like it or not, this book is his personal truth, comprising memories, distilled over time like a fine Bourbon. When the 1st Edition of this book first appeared several years ago, Stevie's fan base came after Mister Christopher on social media with torches and pitchforks, figuratively speaking, as though they were coming after Frankenstein's monster. They attacked the author without regard to the truth of what he asserted, only that here was someone who dared to portray Stevie Nicks as someone with feet of clay, and not the "chiffon clad goddess," and "Queen of Rock 'N Roll," as Rolling Stone Magazine self-servingly portrayed her. The most zealous of Ms. Nicks' followers embarked on a crusade to convince people not to order this book. They said it was because it was "terrible," and assigned one-star reviews, "all lies," and a "fraud," they called it. They did NOT want this book being read. Mister Christopher invites a generation of new readers to make up their own minds. --- Misty Bay Books, Ojai, California
