Author information: "You do not have to be an expert on the Grateful Dead or even know any of their songs to enjoy this book. This is a historical look at a quirky California rock band's 30 years in existence, from 1965 to 1995, viewed almost entirely through financial and business documents, obscure and long out-of-print periodicals, 50-year-old newspaper reports and fragments from other Grateful Dead authors. As I found during my career in entertainment finance, the documents and the contracts almost always speak for themselves."
