 "One reason for doing this is proliferation of stupid books ( in several languages ) which purport to be ABOUT ME. I thought there ought to be at least ONE, somewhere, that had REAL STUFF in it. Please be advised that this book does not pretend to be sort of 'complete' oral history. It is presented for consumption as entertainement only."
The Real FZ book, p.9

From: onthecornr@aol.com (OnTheCornr)
  ...is an obvious must, but you won't read much about FZ's history after about 1967. This is definitely not an "and then I wrote..." kind of autobiography. In fact it shifts gears roughly halfway through and switches from autobiography to philosophy.

From: MFAW38A@prodigy.com (MR PETER OCCHIOGROSSO)
 Was it hard work? Depends if you don't mind inhaling another man's cigarette smoke for hours at a time. Frank was a decent guy with a few quirks -- endless cigarettes and black coffee consumed into the early morning hours. We worked from Midnight until 6 A.M. every day for three weeks because he was busy rehearsing his band for a tour from late afternoon til midnight.
 He was very good with his kids, a pretty regular dad, and the proof is they all seemed to like him, even when he told Ahmet he couldn't go out to the movies with his friends one night when I was there, because he had school the next day.
