"A supremely compelling chronicle" of Neil Young's early life ( Rolling Stone).   Covering the years from 1945 to 1966, this book documents the childhood and teenage life of Canadian musician and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Neil Young. From his birth in Toronto through his school years in Florida, Ontario, and Manitoba, the book examines the development of Young's unique talent against a backdrop of shifting postwar values, a turbulent family history, and a musical revolution in the making—and includes many previously unseen photos and set lists.   "Not only takes us on Neil's voyage but also uncovers life in the 40's, 50's, and 60's in Ontario and Manitoba . . . Wonderful." —Bernie Finkelstein, author of True North: A Life In the Music Business   "Having covered Neil Young for a good portion of his career, I thought I knew everything there was to know about the man and his music. I was wrong. Sharry Wilson's book, marked by enormous depth of study and research, opens windows into Young's early life and creative development I never knew existed." —Dave Zimmer, author, Crosby, Stills & Nash: The Biography
