This book - astonishingly the first ever to chronicle Linkin Park's career and music - has everything the fan could want. Split into 5 sections, it begins with a lengthy group biography, followed by a section covering the band's music [detailing all their albums and every song] , a guide to band members past and present [plus all 'guests' who have recorded or toured with Linkin Park] , the music videos, tours, films and dvds, and a section named 'in their own words' which has hundreds of quotes and interviews with the band themselves.

This book tells Cohen's entire, fascinating story. From his years growing up in Quebec in a middle<br/>class Jewish family, through a decade as a budding poet and author - following the publication of<br/>his first collection in 1956 - his relocation to NYC and entry into the world of folk and rock [at the<br/>age of 37] and his successful career as a singer-songwriter whose own recordings have regularly<br/>competed with versions by other vocalists.

There, Commandant Josef Hanke spots her and recognises her as the pianist he fell in love with years earlier. <br/><br/>Hanke demands that Mosha play 'Ode to Joy' for him, but she refuses. She will never play in such a horrific place - or for such an evil monster. So begins a battle of wills and repeated torture. Even when Hanke causes her to lose her hearing, Mosha refuses to play. <br/><br/>When her sister arrives in the camp, Hanke tries to use her as leverage but Mosha is steadfast in her hatred for Hanke and the Nazis. Even when her sister is subjected to worse punishment, Mosha does not waver. Instead of playing for Hanke, she begins teaching the women camp songs. <br/><br/>Hanke finally turns his anger on Mosha, breaking one of her fingers. She convinces prison guard Elsa to smash the rest of her fingers with a rock. <br/><br/>Mosha believes crippling herself is the only way for her to survive and triumph over Hanke, but what will this do to him? Will Hanke forgive her? Or will this last desperate act finally push him over the edge?
