This Land Was Made for You and Me: The Life and Songs of Woody Guthrie

217 pp. | Viking | March, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-670-03535-1 $$21.99
(1) YA Partridge lays out the complexities and contradictions of Guthrie's life, drawing a full picture of a man who defined the pain and the pleasures of so many Americans. The individual who emerges is a true antihero: poor rather than rich, unkempt rather than groomed, crude rather than polished, passionate rather than contained. Well-chosen illustrations, including Guthrie's sketches and family photos, personalize and extend this account. Bib., ind.
