The Story of HIStory
The Story of HIStory tells the fascinating story of how Michael Jackson created the most important album of his career, addressing racial prejudice, social injustice, accusations, media intrusion, environmental issues and mental health.
As the second book about Jackson by writer Pez Jax, The Story of HIStory delves into the inspiration and creative process behind each of the 15 songs that appeared on ‘HIStory Continues’, the success of single releases, the creation of the short films, global marketing efforts, naming the album and the development of the cover. Supported by first-hand accounts and untold stories, this insightful new work comes as the album marks its 25th Anniversary and reflects on its relevance and impact over the past quarter-century.
