Thanks for your interest in a signed copy of Stealing, the award-winning history of how The Clash broke America.

“Stealing is unlike anything else you’ve ever read about The Clash. The maneuvers by American radio DJs and music journalists . . . are deftly woven into the band’s own story.”
—Barry “The Baker” Auguste, backline roadie for The Clash

We have all read those books about artists of all stripes (and zippers), from which we learn only about misery, malfeasance, and bad behavior. But this is not that book. The Clash is at the center of the story, but the heart of it belongs to other players. People drawn into the orbit who cared, who pushed both themselves and the band forward, who took risks because they felt and knew they were seeing and hearing a revolution. The people who were excited and inspired by the catalysts (The Clash), whose stories are integral to the core of the band’s American journey, and fascinating to finally read about, all in one place . . .
A large and raucous cheer to Randal Doane for choosing the near-mythical Baker to write the foreword. We are treated to nearly two books in one! Ladies and gentlemen, please raise your glasses and cans to Messrs. Doane and Auguste. A triumphant work from this unlikely Gang of Two.”
