From the publisher

Born in New Zealand in 1967 and raised in Australia, Keith Urban has unlikely roots for one of the world's biggest country music stars. His success is undeniable: to date he has sold more than five million albums, written five number one singles, and his shows sell out in minutes to throngs of country fans across the United States. His very public relationship with Nicole Kidman--whom he married in an A-list affair in 2006--earned Urban a totally new audience, with gossip magazines across the planet tracking their relationship and the recent birth of their long-wished-for child, Sunday Rose. Frank, this insider's biography reveals how Keith Urban lived out his childhood dream, as well as the price he's had to pay to reach the top of the music business.

Book Conditions Explained

Biblio’s Book Conditions

As New

The book is pristine and free of any defects, in the same condition as when it was first newly published.

Fine (F)

A book in fine condition exhibits no flaws. A fine condition book closely approaches As New condition, but may lack the crispness of an uncirculated, unopened volume.

Near Fine (NrFine or NF)

Almost perfect, but not quite fine. Any defect outside of shelf-wear should be noted.

Very Good (VG)

A used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Very good items should not have writing or highlighting.

Good (G or Gd.)

The average used and worn book that has all pages or leaves present. ‘Good’ items often include writing and highlighting and may be ex-library. Any defects should be noted. The oft-repeated aphorism in the book collecting world is “good isn’t very good.”

Fair

It is best to assume that a “fair” book is in rough shape but still readable.

Poor (P)

A book with significant wear and faults. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. Any missing pages must be specifically noted.

BIBLIO is the largest independent book marketplace in the world, with over 100 million books.
