Forged in the Dustbowl of the 1930s, in an America crippled by the
Great World Recession, this humble man found solace in song, and
soon those songs became the voice of the People - men and women who
had seen their lives deracinated and destroyed by the vicissitudes
of global economic forces beyond their control. Guthrie's influence
lives on, a touchstone for Bob Dylan, The Clash and the protest
singers of the Occupy movement today. With a delighted eye, and an
ear for a tune, Nick Hayes's follow-up to the critically acclaimed
Rime of the Modern Mariner brings a legend to life with a generous
spirit and crackling moral force its subject would have been proud
of.
