The Long Hard Road Out of Hell is the best-selling autobiography of America’s most controversial celebrity icon, Marilyn Manson. This candid memoir takes readers on a journey from backstage to jail cells, from recording studios to emergency rooms, and from the pit of despair to the top of the charts.

In his twenty-nine years, rock idol Manson has experienced more than most people have (or would want to) in a lifetime. He recounts his metamorphosis from a frightened Christian schoolboy into the most feared and revered music superstar in the country.

Illustrated with dozens of exclusive photographs, the book provides a behind-the-scenes account of his headline-grabbing Dead to the World tour. It’s a rollercoaster ride through the bizarre collection of characters and experiences that shaped his unique persona.
