内容简介

A dope-smoking, whisky-drinking, latter-day cowboy with Native American blood, four wives and seven children, Nelsons career spans half a century of American music. Nelsons life is a journey of incredible highs and crashing lows. Awards, huge record sales, famous friends, the organising of Farm Aid, his annual Fourth of July picnics, Woodstock 99 and the 9/11 memorial, are tempered by his mother and fathers early desertion, penury, alcoholism, three turbulent marriages, drug busts, bankruptcy, as well as his sons suicide and an attempt at taking his own life. The Outlaw brilliantly describes this compelling man, whose life and music reveals and reflects something fundamental at the very heart of twentieth-century America, explaining along the way why Willie Nelson is nothing short of a living legend.
