No ownership inscription. 685 pages clean and tight. This book is the fruit of over thirty years of research. Hundreds of interviews, including with Jackson himself (although he has in no way authorized this book), provide access to the very closest circles of the Jackson family and their associates. Cutting through tabloid rumours and innuendo, J. Randy Taraborrelli traces the real story behind the Michael Jackson we see and hear today, from his drilling as a child star through the blooming of his talent to his ever-changing personal appearance and bizarre publicity stunts. This major biography includes the behind-thescenes story to many of the landmarks in Jackson's life: his legal and commercial battles, his marriages to Lisa Marie Presley and Debbie Rowe, his passions and addictions, his children. Objective and revealing, it will carry the hallmarks of all of Taraborrelli's bestsellers: impeccable research, brilliant storytelling and definitive documentation. Size: Lgre 8vo.

Cloth. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 2nd Impression. Hardcover 0283987812 price clippedThe full, unexpurgated truth about the Russian penetration of the Free World's secret defences. When this book was first published in March 1981, it immediately became a sensational number one best-seller, making headlines around the world with its inside story of treachery and cover-up in high places. Chapman Pincher's revelation that a former head of MI5, Sir Roger Hollis, had been suspected by his colleagues of being a Soviet spy and twice subjected to official investigation, was confirmed by Margaret Thatcher from the despatch box in the House of commons. In this new edition of the book, the author has added much fascinating new material that has come to light as a result of his revelations. He now names several important figures who had perforce to remain unidentified in the first edition. He also describes the two enquiries ordered by the Primce Minister - the first into the British Security Services, and the second into how he obtained his information. Publicity surrounding the revelation about Sir Roger Hollis has perhaps obscured the truly sensational nature of this book, for the author has secured the most authentic, first-hand accounts of the workings of espionage and counter-espionage ever published. No writer has ever before penetrated so deeply and authoriatively into this world.
