"Much has been written about Guthrie, yet nothing communicates who he was so well as the ideas that he set to paper with his own hand. This new biography is accompanied by a significant Guthrie family collection of rare Woody creations, many of which have never been seen before by the public. These letters to family, photos, and drawings reveal Woody's budding personality as he grew from a young boy into a man of remarkable strength and character, becoming America's most publicly visible political activist and the legendary musician..."--book jacket.
