Jim Morrison was the lead singer, composer, and lyricist for The Doors until his death in 1971.  This extremely rare, signed first edition of his book of poetry is one of the most highly coveted items on The Doors' collectors market.
 
Intense, erotic, and enigmatic, Jim Morrison's persona is as riveting now as it was during The Doors' peak in the late sixties. His fast life and mysterious death remain controversial nearly 50 years later and he has been the subject of numerous books and feature films.
 
The Lords and the New Creatures, Morrison's first published volume of poetry, is an uninhibited exploration of society's dark side -- drugs, sex, fame, and death -- captured in sensual, seething images. Here, Morrison gives a revealing glimpse at an era and at the man whose songs and savage performances have left their indelible impression on our culture.
