Discover the story that shaped American folk music

Bound for Glory is the fascinating autobiography of Woody Guthrie, a pioneer of modern American folk music, revealing not only his musical journey but also the harsh life experiences he endured during the Great Depression.

This book offers a raw and candid look at Guthrie's life in an Oklahoma oil-boom town, the difficult years of the Great Depression, and his adventurous travels across America - by train, in stolen cars, and on foot. Readers gain not only a personal portrait of one of the most influential folk artists, but also a depiction of a time of severe social change.

Bound for Glory draws you into the story of a man whose music fought against the injustices of the world and provides a profound insight into American history through the eyes of one of its most distinctive voices.
