Post by Bernd from Germany »

Hello,

I have a question, what does anybody of you about a Biography or even an Autobiography from Jimmy Buffett as a Book and maybe in german Language.

Best wishes

Bernd, good question. Unfortunately, I'd doubt you'll find anything in German, but the English version of what you'd be looking for is Jimmy's book "A Pirate Looks at 50". Good luck! :D

Hi Bernd,

I do not know of any German language books by or about Jimmy Buffett (translations). His memoir, A Pirate Looks At Fifty, has not been translated as far as I know.

I guess you have probably already tried AMAZON.DE

Although not in German either, I consider this book biographical.

I hope this link works

There's only a couple of chapters that are truly autobiographical in nature. A lot of it's a travelogue. The man's smart enough to leave enough his history to legend.
