The following new books about Michael Jackson are available at the Hessen Cassel branch of the Allen County Public Library:

“Moonwalk”

By Michael Jackson

A reissue of his 1988 book, Jackson shares his feelings about his friends, the crushing isolation of his fame, his first love, plastic surgery, his career and the often bizarre and unfair rumors.

“Michael”

By Robert Sullivan

Life magazine’s photo-documentary of Jackson’s life includes dynamic photographs from every era.

“Michael Jackson: The Magic, The Madness, The Whole Story, 1958-2009”

By Randy J. Taraborrelli

This book is the fruit of more than 30 years of research and hundreds of exclusive interviews with a remarkable level of access to the very closest circles of the Jackson family, including Michael himself. Taraborrelli traces the story behind Jackson as a child star through the blooming of his talent to his ever-changing personal appearance and bizarre publicity stunts.

“Remembering Michael, 1958-2009”

By Cutler Durkee

Preposterously talented, fronting the Jackson 5 from early childhood, Jackson lived at a new level of celebrity – more media, more attention, more intensity than even Elvis or the Beatles. How he dealt with fame, how he used it and how it, arguably, overwhelmed him became, in later years, the heart of the Michael Jackson story.

“Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson”

By Ian Halperin

New revelations about Jackson’s controversial life and legacy, his multiple plastic surgeries, his skin bleaching, his sexual identity, his potentially fatal genetic condition and the popular myths about the King of Pop. The conclusion was written after “Michael Jackson died just as this book was going to press.”

“In the Studio With Michael Jackson”

By Bruce Swedien

The inside secrets of Jackson’s greatest records by the Grammy-winning engineer who captured and enhanced their sound.
