After he died in the back seat of a Cadillac at the age of
twenty-nine, Hank Williams-a frail, flawed man who had become
country music's first real star-instantly morphed into its first
tragic martyr. Having hit the heights with simple songs of despair,
depression and tainted love, he would become in death a template
for the rock generation to follow. Mark Ribowsky weaves together
the first fully realised biography of Williams in a generation.
Examining his music while re-creating days and nights choked in
booze and desperation, he traces the rise of this legend-from the
dirt roads of Alabama to the immortal stage of the Grand Ole Opry
and to a lonely end on New Year's Day, 1953. This original work
uncovers the real Hank beneath the myths that have long enshrouded
his legacy.
