GUTHRIE, Woody . BOUND FOR GLORY. New York: E. P. Dutton & Co., Inc.,
1943. First Edition. Autobiography and first book by one of our greatest
songwriters, author of this country's unofficial national anthem, "This
Land Is Your Land." This title, quite scarce in the first edition,
especially in dustwrapper, served as the basis for the Hal Ashby film
starring David Carradine. This copy is SIGNED by Woody's son, Arlo
Guthrie, as well as Arlo's son, Abe, both of whom have INSCRIBED the
book to Kathy, Abe adding a 1991 date. Arlo has carried on the legacy of
his legendary father as a singer, songwriter, and lifelong political
activist. He is perhaps best known for the song ALICE'S RESTAURANT as
well as his appearance in the Arthur Penn film of the same name. Number
in white at base of spine but no other indication that this copy was in
a library; gilt dull but still readable. Good or better, lacking the
dustwrapper. $1,000.00
