""A revelation. the most perceptive book written about an Australian rock figure" Sydney Morning HeraldWhen Bon Scott died in London in 1980, AC/DC were on the brink of becoming the world's biggest rock band. As the lightning bolt of lyrical inspiration behind their songs and frontman for their high voltage live performances, Bon was already a legend. In death, he became the ultimate Australian rock icon. Highway to Hell tells Bon Scott's story in two-fisted prose drawn from deep research and scores of interviews. It charts the long way to the top for a larrikin lad from Fremantle who rose out of the rubble of a primitive pop scene to become the voice of a generation - the raucous howl and mischievous glint in classic songs like 'TNT', 'Jailbreak', 'Let There Be Rock', 'Dirty Deeds' and 'Whole Lotta Rosie', which are still finding new fans to this day. Since it was first published to worldwide acclaim in 1994, Clinton Walker's Highway to Hell has endured as the definitive book on Bon Scott and AC/DC. It stands as a moving and vivid tribute to the redemptive power of rock'n'roll and to a unique man who gave his life in pursuit of a wild, beautiful dream. PRAISE FOR CLINTON WALKER"Great reporting, scholarship and storytelling" Rolling Stone (US)".

Clinton Walker's biography of Bon Scott is the definitive account of the life of the iconic rocker, tracing his musical apprenticeship in bubblegum pop band the Valentines and blues-rockers Fraternity through to joining up with Angus and Malcolm Young in AC/DC, where his racy lyrics, unique vocal style, and sheer charisma helped define a new, highly influential brand of rock and roll. Drawing on many first-person interviews and featuring a gallery of rare images, Clinton Walker traces AC/DC's career through the life of their original front man, from the Scottish roots he shared with the Youngs to small-time gigs to recording studios and international success, right up to Scott's shocking death in 1980, just as the band were getting the worldwide recognition they'd worked for so tirelessly. Wild speculation about how Scott died has surfaced periodically in the intervening years and flared up again recently. For this edition, Clinton Walker re-examines the evidence surrounding Scott's death, investigates these recurring claims, and concludes that such conspiracy theories have no basis in fact. The result underlines Highway to Hell's status as the authoritative version of the life-and untimely death-of one of rock's greatest characters.
