In addition, Himes offers a sidebar for each album that includes:
An image of the album sleeve Recording and release dates Single releases Chart positions for singles and albums
Along the way, read about Nelson's film roles, notable collaborators, famous Fourth of July picnics, iconic Martin guitar "Trigger," and involvement in causes like Farm Aid, biodiesel fuels, and marijuana legalization.
The text, together with more than 250 images of Nelson on- and offstage, make for a unique and visually entertaining celebration of an American treasure who has transcended America's increasing polarization to become a national treasure.
