By Mike Love

In this captivating autobiography, rock icon and activist Mike Love shares his incredible journey through music and social change. From his early days as a founding member of the Beach Boys to his lifelong commitment to environmentalism and peace, Love has witnessed and participated in some of the most important events of the past half-century.

Love's story begins in the sun-drenched California of the 1950s, where he and his brothers Brian, Dennis, and Carl formed a band that would go on to become one of the most successful in history. The Beach Boys' music captured the carefree spirit of the era, and their songs became anthems for a generation. But Love was always more than just a musician. He was also a passionate activist, and he used his platform to speak out against war, poverty, and environmental destruction.

In the 1960s, Love became involved in the civil rights movement, and he marched alongside Martin Luther King Jr. He also spoke out against the Vietnam War, and he was one of the organizers of the famous "Bed-In for Peace" in Montreal. In the 1970s, Love turned his attention to environmental issues, and he became a vocal advocate for clean air and water. He also helped to found the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, which works to protect marine wildlife.

Throughout his life, Love has remained committed to his music and his activism. He continues to perform with the Beach Boys, and he is also a regular speaker at environmental and peace rallies. In his autobiography, Love shares his insights on the power of music to change the world. He also offers a firsthand account of some of the most important events of the past half-century.

My Incredible Life In Music And The Movement is a must-read for anyone interested in rock and roll, social change, or American history. It is a powerful and inspiring story of a man who has used his voice to make a difference in the world.
