Bob Marley is the unchallenged king of reggae and one of music's
great iconic figures. Rita Marley was not just his wife and the
mother of four of his children but his backing singer and friend,
life-long companion and soul mate. They met in Trenchtown when he
was 19 and she was 18, and she was very much part of his musical
career, selling his early recordings from their house in the days
before Island Records signed up the Wailers. She shared the hard
times and the dangers - when Bob was wounded in a gunfight before
the Peace Concert, Rita was shot in the head and left for dead.
Their marriage was not always easy but Rita was the woman Bob
returned to no matter where music and other women might take him,
the woman who held him when he died at the age of 35. Today she
sees herself as the guardian of his legacy. Full of new insights,
No Woman No Cry is a unique biography of Marley by someone who
understands what it meant to grow up in poverty in Jamaica, to
battle racism and prejudice. It is also a moving and inspiring
story of a marriage that survived both poverty and then the strains
of global celebrity.
