Originally published as Hank William: The Biography.
In his brief life, Hank Williams created one of the defining bodies of American music. Songs such as "Your Cheatin' Heart," "Hey, Good Lookin'," and "Jambalaya" sold millions of records and became the model for virtually all country music that followed.
But by the time of his death at age twenty-nine, Williams had drunk and drugged and philandered his way through two messy marriages and out of his headline spot on the Grand Ole Opry. Even though he was country music's top seller, toward the end he was so famously unreliable that he was lucky to get a booking in a beer hall. Colin Escott's enthralling, definitive biograph--now the basis of the major motion picture I Saw the Light--vividly details the singer's stunning rise and his spectacular decline, revealing much that was previously unknown or hidden about the life of this country music legend.

About the Authors
Merritt Lyndon Fernald (1873-1950) was a legendary American botanist. Based at Harvard University, he published more than 850 scientific papers and wrote and edited the seventh and eighth editions of Gray's Manual of Botany, long the standard flora of the region. As evident in this book, he also had an deep interest in wild food plants, and made many experiments with plants to determine their edibility and how best to prepare them.
Alfred Charles Kinsey (1894-1956) was an American biologist and professor of entomology and zoology at Indiana University, but perhaps most remembered as the founder, in 1947, of the Institute for Sex Research at Indiana University, now known as the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction.
Steve Chadde (1955- )is a botanist and plant ecologist who developed a passion for the natural world at an early age. His grandparents, German immigrants to the United States, were avid gardeners, and provided him with many memories of picking fresh fruit and garden vegetables as part of healthy, delicious meals. Later, in addition to his education and professional work as a botanist, he continued to expand on his knowledge of plants and their many uses. He has published numerous books on plants, including his recent state floras for Minnesota (2013), Wisconsin (2013), and for the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (2014). He is pleased to make this landmark work on edible plants once again available to a new generation.
