If you've ever been to a a Jimmy Buffett concert or listened to a CD, you'll want to read this book to learn more about the man who sings about the good life sailing on his boat yet is the CEO
of Margaritaville, a company with restaurants, hotels and resorts. This is a well researched book that traces Jimmy's life from his early days singing for beer in New Orleans to becoming the head of the
Parrott Head nation where it's always 5 o'clock somewhere.

Thanks to NetGalley for a copy of this book to read and review.

I'm not a huge Jimmy Buffett fan but I figure if anybody's led an interesting life, it's him. And the book doesn't disappoint.

Jimmy Buffett is pretty public about his life and has written some books of his own so I wasn't sure what more Mr. White could tell us that all of us Biloxi, Mississippi parrotheads didn't already know.

I have to say the book itself was a little dry. Jimmy Buffett is fun, a beach bum, a pirate and bigger than life. It's always a good time with Jimmy around.

I just really didn't care for this particular account of his life so far. I didn't feel any of the electricity that follows Jimmy everywhere he goes.

Thank you Netgalley!
