Jimmy Page is one of music’s greatest guitarists, innovators and legends. Jimmy Page By Jimmy Page is his official autobiography, a photographic essay he personally created to tell his story for the first time. Jimmy's own words, combined with his handpicked selection of over 600 photographs, make this book the definitive visual and historical record of a remarkable life.

"I’ve been asked on a number of occasions to do a written book and I thought of the other side of the coin,” says Page. I thought it would be unique to have an autobiography in photographs, charting my whole musical journey."

Originally conceived as a limited edition of only 2,500 copies worldwide, the first printing of Jimmy Page By Jimmy Page sold out within weeks of release. In the spring of 2010, it became the fastest-selling book in Genesis Publications’ 40-year history. Now Jimmy Page and Genesis Publications announce a more accessible and affordable edition of the book, to be released this October 2014.

"I always like to do something different. If you’re inspired by an idea, really make something of that inspiration. That goes for music, as well as anything else – even putting a book together! To have a photographic autobiography is a totally different way of looking at things, but it does the job very well, and I think it will bring a lot of pleasure to people." - Jimmy Page

The first ever publication by a member of Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page By Jimmy Page is the perfect purchase for guitar players and music lovers of any age.
