I've read all the books ; the books of letters ; several bios ; and have seen a few docu/movies about Jack , and in the process , have absorbed an abundance of factoids such as the 49 Earl Avenue address . 10 to 1 Jack hit the Bali Hai at least once . Wow, very cool. I also bow at the alter of Kerouac but I haven't read nearly as much as you have. Retracing his footsteps is pretty fun. There is a Kerouac/New York City walking tour book that came out a few years ago that I have used a bunch of times to see where his and the beats old haunts were around here. This Northport thing has opened up a whole other door of intrigue. I'm thinking that Jack went into the Bali Hai at least once. He lived insanely close to it at the Earl Avenue address. Out of the Kerouac biographies that you have read which is the best one?
