At the heart of this comprehensively researched and detailed book is the fully documented nuts-and-bolts story of the evolution, production, and post-production history of the 1979 cult-classic film Rock 'N' Roll High School. The pursuit of the band, the hijinks that ensued during their two-week stay at LA's Tropicana, difficulties experienced throughout filming, and the incessant touring before, during, and after the film provide one classic anecdotal story after another. Novelist and Pulitzer Prize—winning feature writer Jackson (Survival Math: Notes on an All-American Family) celebrates the legacies and individual personalities of these elite athletes—Wilt Chamberlain, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and many more—while illustrating how they were influenced by and also affected cultural history throughout the decades.
