In honour of the 75th birthday of Bob Marley, this glorious oversized book collects more than 150 photographs that celebrate the life and influence of the godfather of reggae and one of the greatest stars of twentieth-century pop music.

Edited by Ziggy Marley, and drawing exclusively on images in the family archives, the book brings together famous images of Marley as icon on stage with unseen glimpses into his creative process in and out of the studio, and his family life in Jamaica.

With photographs chronicling every stage of his career - from his early days with the trio of the Wailers, through his heyday in the 1970s with Island Records and the international rise of reggae music, to his latter years in peaceful retreat prior to his death in 1981 - and with anecdotes along side the images from family and friends, this is a definitive portrait of one of the great artists of the twentieth century.
