Close To The Edge details this remarkable change in a fresh and deeply intimate style. Jim comes clean about himself, his actions and his motives. From the times he spent in the rehabilitation clinic to the full story of the break up of his four marriages, he re-evaluates his life in a critical and self-aware manner - making Close to The Edge an entertaining and unusually powerful autobiography.
