The Nearest Faraway Place by Timothy White
Both the social history of an era and a portrait of the band, the Beach Boys, this book tells how the grandmother of future Beach Boy Brian Wilson, headed for Califonia in 1922. Intertwined with the personal stories of the band themselves is the story of the Los Angeles basin.
No writer has interviewed James Taylor and his family in greater depth over the decades than the late Timothy White, former editor-in-chief of Billboard, and author of the international best-seller Catch A Fire: The Life of Bob Marley.
This edition has been updated by his friend and former Rolling Stone comrade Mitch Glazer and includes an epilogue about the memorial concerts for Timothy that James Taylor helped organize.
