Glenda W.: Enjoyed reading this.

G. Cutchin: I’ve never written a review about a book before in my life, but I’ve enjoyed this book so much that I have to write one now. It’s so easy to read; the story flows in an easy-going and relaxed style that matches Willies’s persona. It has been a joy to read.

Lucky Lady: Felt it comprehensively covered his life without trying to fit in every single thing in his life, because how could you do that? He was 85 or so when this was written and it reads as though you are talking to him as the language is what one would expect from Willie! Filled in some things I did not know about him before. Still think he's terrific!

Terence J. O'Gara: Comprehensive coverage of a long and fascinating career.

dw68: I am not a big ready but once I started reading this book about Willie, I couldn’t put it down. This is a wonderful insight to the man and the singer/ songwriter. Very much worth the read.

Amazon Customer: Loved the book. Short sentences and chapters. Had me looking up songs to hear them again. Love his integrity, a true American hero.

Caddock: Always like Willie Nelson's music but really bought this on a whim. I am glad I did, it's in turn funny, poignant and real. Well written and interesting recount of life's ups and downs.

Geoffrey W Ward: I love that this man told a very true story about himself,recognising all his faults but staying very true to his music which has gone all round the world.
A man who has had a long life but looks back and acknowledges what a great time he has had and how he has always been a people person,always
remaining positive even when times were bad
I loved his music before I read his book but now I also love him as a man who was always true to himself and his own way of making music

Bill Black: A bit repetitious. But I love Willie and love that I have learnt more about him. I’d love to play with Willie, Neal and Dylan, some moonlight night in the “barn”
Jean Youn was a good friend and a hero, in my mind. Wil Black/FF

prisrob: 'Night Life, 'Crazy' and 'Hello Walls, three of Willie Nelson's most wonderful and long lasting songs were almost sold for five dollars a piece. Willie was down on his luck, looking for work, and needed money. Thankfully, the man he wanted to sell them to, would not buy them,but offered him an opportunity to move on. This is but one little bit of info we learn about this wonderful, musical man.

From a young age Willie had the music in him. Brought up by his grandparents in the little Texas town they lived in, he and his sister had a wonderful childhood. Not much money but love, hard work, and perseverance. Willie was always active, an athlete, loved the music he learned from Church, but when he was offered money to play honky tonk in a bar, he took it. Eight dollars a night, more than he made in a week picking cotton. He moved around a lot, every small and large town in Texas, Oregon, California, and then he traveled to Nashville where his life turned around.

Willie makes it clear that family and friends come first. However, Willie was a ladie's man, and was out every evening playing his music. With three marriages behind him and several children, Willie admits he...
