Books by Steve Earle

Steve Earle has released ten critically-acclaimed albums since his 1986 debut Guitar Town made him an overnight star. A prolonged struggle with drug addiction resulted in a spell in jail in the early 1990s. Since his recovery, his comeback albums, beginning with the 1995 Grammy-nominated Train A Comin', have all been critical and commercial successes. His latest album is Transcendental Blues. He also works on behalf of a number of political and social causes which have been the subject of his songs for years. He serves as a board member of an organisation that seeks to abolish the death penalty and is also active in anti-landmine and welfare rights movements.
