Long acclaimed as one of the best rock books ever written, Diary of a Rock 'n' Roll Star is Ian Hunter's candid account of Mott the Hoople's five week American tour in November and December 1972.
First published in 1974, it has received a litany of plaudits and been described as what "may well be the best rock book ever" and "an enduring crystallization of the rock musician's lot, and a quietly glorious period piece" from Q and The Guardian.
