Why read it?
1 author picked Margrave of the Marshes as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love John Peel, which attracted me to read his story. He was partway through writing the book when he passed away, and his wife took over to complete it. It was lovely to learn about his upbringing and early years, and it’s a compassionate, funny book about a man to whom the music world owes a debt of gratitude for all his musical discoveries.
From Pete's list on British rock music icons.
