I’m sure Ken must have shared a lot more than what appeared in the Tusk documentary.

I would definitely recommend it. Earlier posts on this thread had focused quite a bit on the relationships between the members, and while that is indeed discussed, a decent chunk of the book is still dedicated to the music. Every song on the album is discussed in at least some capacity, in addition to "The Dealer" and "The Farmer's Daughter". Some of the language may be somewhat technical for those without a music background, but most of it should be pretty understandable to the general public. There's some information in there that can't be found anywhere else, so it's definitely something that an uber-Fleetwood Mac fan should purchase.
