The extraordinary story of the most gifted yet nihilistic London band since The Sex Pistols is told. Kids in the Riot is written with the complete co-operation of the major players in the gloriously destructive ascent of The Libertines and documents the break-ins, break-ups, punch-ups and make-ups of the bands first two phenomenal years. The book is illustrated with photographs taken from the authors archive, compiled during many years as a friend of the band.
