<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The first biography of the elusive musician who influenced an entire generation of country songwriters as his tragic life became the stuff of legend<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>At last, the authorized biography of Townes Van Zandt (1944-1997), who wrote such unforgettable songs as "Pancho & Lefty" and "If I Needed You." Born to a wealthy oil family in Ft. Worth, Texas, hounded by alcoholism and depression, Van Zandt pursued a nomadic existence following his muse, whatever the cost to himself, friends, and relatives. Based on exclusive interviews with those close to Van Zandt, including his best friend Guy Clark and colleagues like Steve Earle and John Prine, <i>To Live's to Fly</i> captures all the humor, hijinks, poetry, and heartbreak of this revered, <i>genuinely</i> outlaw country artist.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A fervent tribute to a true legend of American songwriting. John Kruth has tracked the back story of Townes Van Zandt like a manic bloodhound without spoiling the mystery of the man." -- Sam Shepard<br><br>"I think of Townes as the greatest folk song writer that my native state of Texas ever gave birth to. Some of us songwriters are just lyricists, but he was definitely a poet." -- Nanci Griffith<br><br>"Townes Van Zandt is the best songwriter in the whole world and I'll stand on Bob Dylan's coffee table in my cowboy boots and say that." -- Steve Earle<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>John Kruth</b> is a writer, musician, and author of <i>Bright Moments: The Life and Legacy of Rashaan Roland Kirk</i>. He lives in New York City.
