A intriguing and somewhat undefinable book, covering a vast array of topics, such as mental health, countryside matters, life science, ecology, the political nature of freedom, people trafficking and human failings. Racing from Nicholas Von Hoogstraten, to various politicians of most denominations, this is an urgent call to arms, looking at the economics, politics, divisiveness, that the British countryside has endured.

graphic account of Guthrie's life (with some artistic liberties) leading up to his writing the Dust Bowl ballads, along with quite a bit of history.

La musica di Woody, la sua splendida “this land is your land” hanno contribuito, insieme alla migliore letteratura americana, Steinbeck su tutti, a renderci un’immagine di quegli Stati Uniti. Nick Hayes è bravo ad utilizzare un tono monocromatico per raccontare la vita di un uomo che ha contribuito a scrivere la storia della musica americana: fame, disperazione, dolore, speranza, successo ed amore, sono tutti sostantivi che fanno parte della narrazione americana. Bella l’introduzione di Francesco e Gregori.… (lisätietoja)

If this fictionalized interpretation of Woody Guthrie has any truth to it, then Woody Guthrie was an ass who I would have hated. It doesn't take away from the power of his music, but it certainly takes away from the power of this book. Reading this book was a dreary, unrewarding chore.
