Soft cover, 7x10 size, on high quality reproduction paper.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"A lovely and revealing look at Jim Morrison through photos that have been rarely or never seen before. I was delighted by MY EYES HAVE SEEN YOU. I know that anyone with the least interest in Morrison will find a rich treasure of new insights within these beautifully reproduced pages." -- Frank Lisciandro
From the Author
This is our attempt to enlarge, make definitive, put into focus the meaning of Jim Morrison with new photos. These stark black and white images, sometimes in pure color, tell a story and reveal a truth that transcends the elusive myth of Jim Morrison and they invite us to see beyond the image. For old fans who remember and new ones who will discover the real Jim Morrison, we have created a "visual biography," and not just your greatest hits compilation photo-book. The photos are a bridge to the past and a doorway to the future. Live with them. Learn from them. Such is the hope.

Fantastic, a Doors fan illustration dream!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Jim Morrison: My Eyes Have Seen You (Paperback)
I think this book was wonderful. it contained many photos which ive never seen before, and ive seen alot..The moment i picked it up i carefully turned each page with excitement, waiting to break on through to the other side. This book will light any Doors fans fire, with photos from Jim's childhood to the last days of his life. The soft parade of high quality pages will caress your fingertips. And when the musics over and you reached the end you will find yourself turning back to the front cover to ride the crystal ship once more....

Review: Jim Morrison: My Eyes Have Seen You,
By Jay Crutcher (Louisville, Ky.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jim Morrison: My Eyes Have Seen You (Paperback)
This book is absolutely marvelous. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and that makes this book priceless. This book is a must have for any Doors/Jim Morrison fan. There is an old belief that photography 'stole' someone's soul. This book does just the opposite. It does nothing but 'give.' It shows the artist, the poet. It is virtually all photos. Not opinions or someone elses slant on things that Jim can't respond to or defend himself from. This is exactly the type of book I feel that Jim would want out. It encourages you to think, learn, grow, live and transcend life on your own terms. Exactly what Jim would want for people to do. This book and it author are pure genius.

TELL ALL THE PEOPLE!!...,
By william (LIBERTY CITY, MIAMI, FLORIDA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jim Morrison: My Eyes Have Seen You (Paperback)
WOW, this book is not only the best Doors book ever published but it is also a great coffee table book for all to read...well, there isn't that much to read but...who said looking isn't a way of reading!!Obsesively exhausting, this book trully follows Jim Morrison through photography. His life and what a life he had is reason enough to interest the non-believer...First Rock singer to get arrested on stage. First Rock singer to use profanity on record.. move over Axl Rose and Luther Campbell. His myth stay intact before and after viewing.
