If you want the best book on the Grateful Dead, read Dennis McNally's; if you want a sensationalistic inside scoop that concentrates on drug use and the negative, read Rock Scully's; if you want the best book about music by a member of the band, read Mickey Hart's; if you want the best look at the acid tests and the Dead's part in them, read Tom Wolfe's. If you just want to make the mosaic image you have of the Dead a little clearer, go ahead and read Phil Lesh's. **

For a couple more tiles in the mosaic you could add Hunter Thompson's Hells Angels and the oral history of Bill Graham's life.
