Summary: Interesting account of legendary folksinger
Comment: Heard the taped version of BOUND FOR GLORY, the
autobiography of Woody Guthrie . . . he was the legendary
folksinger who traveled all over the US during the years
after the Great Depression--by boxcar, thumb and foot . . . the
songs he wrote and sang ("This Land Is Your Land," "Hard
Traveling," etc.) have become national treasures . . . I liked
this, in large part because of the narration of his son Arlo . . . my only regret is that I didn't get to hear more of the elder Guthrie's songs; rather, just small snippets were played.

Summary: Bound for Glory
Comment: I read this book many years ago, and I easily recommend it to anyone. You don't have to be a fan of folk music (I'm not particularly), or ascribe to any particular ideology to ejoy it. Woody Guthrie is a very intelligent and insightful but writes in a straightforward plain English without any of the pretense of some of the Beat road stories.

Summary: a great way to get to know woody
Comment: I enjoyed reading this book. Woody writes with a unique perspective and style. This book along with his fictional/ autobiographical-Seeds of Man are must reads to get to know this uniquely american hero (but Joe Kleins biography-Woody Guthrie, a life is the best way to really get to know Woody.)
