Where Have All the Flowers Gone

Résumé du livre

"This book tells the story of one person's attempts, over a long lifetime, to put together new songs..." In this volume, including over 200 songs, Seeger comments on everything from songwriting to social activism--a musical autobiography. Supported chronologically by stories, anecdotes, photos and drawings, this collection offers a unique insight into the life and philosophy of a central figure in the modern day "folk music revival." From the 1930s, when Seeger began playing with Woody Guthrie and Leadbelly, through his almost sixty years of activism in the labor, peace, civil rights and environmental movements, he has steadfastly held the belief that everyone should be able to participate in making music.
