Out in time for Xmas! Even if you don't know the man (Ron Young) or his band (Little Caesar), any fan of music will love this book. An insight into the unforgiving music industry, and all of the joy and sorrow along the way. An amazingly personal story.

Co-authored with Steve Olivas, Ron Young's Judge This Book By Its Cover, was released in paperback on December 7th via JRNYman Publishing, and is available to order now at this location.

Ron Young had what it takes to make a career in music. He had the talent, the songs, and the backing of a major label (Geffen). His band, Little Caesar, smashed their way onto the music scene—but then it all came crashing down.

Ron’s personal rise and fall began at the hands of an abusive mother. Music was his savior, and rays of hope shone through. However, that hope was ultimately destroyed under constant bad timing, bad luck, and people judging him by how he looked. Then came escape into a heroin addiction and the accompanying darkness. Finally, he found sobriety and a musical resurrection.

Join Ron through his personal story of joy, sorrow, and despair… and find out how he made peace with himself along the way. Through it all, Ron invites you to judge him by his actions, not by what you’ve heard. He urges you to take a closer look… and then judge this book by its cover.
