He died much as he had lived - drunk, forlorn, suffering from a birth defect, wondering when the bubble would burst. Having sprouted out of nowhere, like a weed in the wilds of South Alabama, he was gone at the age of twenty-nine." "Now, with this biography of the man and his music, Paul Hemphill takes the reader on a journey through hank Williams's life and times: his dirt-poor beginnings as a sickly child, learning music from a black street singer, refining it in raucous honky-tonks during the depression, emerging as a star of the grand Ole Opry. Uneducated, virtually fatherless, an alcoholic in his teens, unlucky at love, Hank mined his experiences to write songs that will live forever." "Hemphill has unearthed many fresh details in Williams's life, but most important he has explained that life and given it the lively telling it deserves."--BOOK JACKET
