For Bob Dylan's 80th birthday, a revised and updated edition of Howard Sounes' classic biography of the legend.
'Engagingly written and scrupulously researched' Observer
This new edition of Howard Sounes' classic, definitive biography of Bob Dylan offers a new chapter that brings the story of the legend right up to date for his 80th birthday. Critically acclaimed, Down the Highway gives the complete picture of the man, the artist and performer. Meticulously researched and including hundreds of interviews with Dylan's closest associates, it also contains a brand new chapter covering the last ten years of Dylan's life, and the last (and previously unpublished) interview with Dylan's first serious girlfriend.
A compelling, fast-paced and revelatory read, Down the Highway takes the reader on a journey from Dylan's childhood in a Minnesota mining town to the status he enjoys today as the leading poet-troubadour of popular song, and one of the most iconic figures of contemporary culture.
