Woody Guthrie
And the Dust Bowl Ballads
(Author) Nick HayesForged in the Dust bowl of the 1930s, in an America crippled by the Great World Recession, Woodie Guthrie found solace in song, and soon those songs became the voice of the people - men and women who had seen their lives deracinated and destroyed by the vicissitudes of global economic forces beyond their control. With a delighted eye, and an ear for a tune, Nick Hayes's follow-up to the critically acclaimed 'Rime of the Modern Mariner' brings a legend to life with a generous spirit and crackling moral force its subject would have been proud of.
