Summary: On The Road Again...
Comment: This autobiography of Willie is as well done as it could possibly be. Willie is as big as anyone in the music world and in fact created a lot of that world himself.To the multitude of fans who love his music;this book will tell you much more about Willie, the man.Even if you think you know all there is to know, it will hold more surprises than you could imagine.I must warn you that the book came out in 1988,and hence does not deal with the crippling tax problems he was facing and how he dealt with and overcame them.However; it does give an excellent insight into his whole life,both personally and on the road.A must read for any Wllie Nelson fan.
A very interesting surprise.."For all you fellow pilgrims,here is my list of statements to watch out for on your journey:
THE 60 GREAT LIES ON THE ROAD"
The many photographs are also excellent.

Summary: Proof: Better than Fiction!
Comment: I bought "Willie" years ago (and I like the old cover with the flag..don't know why they changed that) It's a big, thick book that's just crammed with proof that real life - if it's Willie's - is a whole lot better than any fiction novel. I loaned my copy out one too many times and it came up missing, so was glad to see it on here so I could get another one...only I had my old one so dog-earred, highlighted, etc...I hate having to go buy all those markers again, to do over;) When you get your copy, go to the index and ck it out....grab that highlighter pen before you even get started, here. I'm a truck driver, so I read this and that and here and there, before having a chance to read cover to cover. Then it turned into a reference book of Willie's Wisdom and all sorts of good stuff to good to forget. I kept it handy just to re-read some parts over and over. It's more than one book, somehow or other...yes, it's his autobiography - an All-American tale of rags to riches and all that; but, it's a whole lot more than that, too. If you like Willie, buy it. If you don't, I don't know why you're in here looking at it...but, if you like a dynamite story, or to read real-life accounts at all - you won't put this down, easily. What leaves me amazed is how anyone could cram that much living into the time period that book covers...he's lived nearly 20 more years since then...so I bought his new one, "Facts of Life and Other Dirty Jokes", to see what he's been up to since the "Willie" book. It's a hoot..sort of a grass-roots type of wisdom, interjected with lots of "mind-f.r.ts" and takes on his varied accumulation of friends and family, to date. Better buy it too, while you're at it...for dessert.

Summary: strong book
Comment: not only do I dig&respect Willie Nelson as a Artist but also His Down to Earth Vibe.this Book Reflects on that&so much more.He has a Mellow but to the point way of saying stuff like He did in this Book.He is a song within a Song in this Book.
