"Willie Nelson is more than just a singer whose albums have captured this country's imagination for more than thirty years: he is the nearest thing we have to the poet laureate of America's heart and the heartland. Told with frankness, warmth and earthy humor, here is Willie's story: his Depression-era childhood; his stormy marriages; his wild experiences with drugs, booze and women; his long rise to superstardom; and his shared musical and personal experiences with Waylon Jennings, Julio Iglesias, Kris Kristopherson, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Loretta Lynn, George Jones, Frank Sinatra and Linda Ronstadt." --Worldcat.
