None Too Fragile: Pearl Jam and Eddie Vedder

This book brings to life and updates Pearl Jam’s tumultuous ascent to superstardom. It follows the band through its successes — its first album, Ten, went multiplatinum — and its controversies, including a media-charged rivalry with Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain, band tensions, personnel changes, and substance abuse. Clarke also delves into the personality of lead singer Eddie Vedder, who refuses to make videos or grant interviews. 50 black-and-white photos are included in this updated biography of one of the most popular groups today.
