Paperback. Zustand: Good. He is known as the Mark Twain of American songwriting, a man who transformed the everyday happenings of regular people into plainly profound statements on war, industrialization, religion, and the human condition.

Osmon delves into the making of its classic albums and songs, including Bruce Springsteen?s ?Born to Run?, Bob Seger?s ?Against the Wind?, John Mellencamp?s ?Small Town? and Tom Petty?s ?I Won?t Back Down?
