Quatrième de couverture :

Singer. Songwriter. Storyteller. With an unmistakable voice that resonates with millions, lyrics that speak volumes in the span of three minutes and a career that lasted nearly five decades, Johnny Cash was peerless in his style and had a vast influence on country, folk and rock music.
The legendary 'Man in Black' wrote his first hit record for Sam Phillips at Sun Records in the 1950s…and in 2003 turned a Nine Inch Nails song into one of the most deeply moving music videos ever created. A man of uncommon grace and innate goodness, Johnny Cash plied his gifts, fought his demons and lived a life that was his alone while somehow managing to leave a little of himself with people all over the world.
In Cash: An American Life, fans of his music are now given a unique and personal glimpse into his life through hundreds of photographs, private letters, handwritten lyrics, his final interview, and other astonishing memorabilia in a one-of-a-kind collection fully authorized by the Johnny Cash Estate and created in cooperation with his friend, confident and lifelong fan, Bill Miller. Lavishly illustrated, Cash: An American Man is sure to be one of the most talked about books of the year, and the ultimate tribute to one of music's most enduring icons.
