{"product_id":"2940148490128","title":"Down Thunder Road: The Making of Bruce Springsteen","description":"The book 'The Boss' hoped would never be published — an explosive unauthorized biography written with the help of Mike Appel, Springsteen's former producer\/manager. Based on exclusive interviews and previously unreleased material, including depositions from the lawsuit that prevented Springsteen from recording for over a year, Down Thunder Road traces Springsteen's rise to fame and reveals the man behind the myth. Originally published in 1992, this title is now available for the first time in a full-ebook edition with photos, legal documents and memorabilia in high resolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLIBARY JOURNAL: \"Rock writer Eliot chronicles Springsteen's rise to stardom during the mid-1970s. By effectively patching together lengthy quotes, he outlines the rock star's New Jersey childhood, mentions his first bands, and concentrates on Springsteen's relationship and 1976 split with Appel, who managed the singer\/guitarist to his Born To Run (1975) success and whose recollections form the basis of this book.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAUDIO FILE \"Eliot's narration is straightforward and well-executed. He jumps nimbly between protagonists with the simplest changes of inflection and intonation - no small feat considering the large amount of directly quoted material, including a highly effective dramatization of court transcripts.......Down Thunder Road proves to be entertaining.\"","brand":"Renaissance Literary \u0026 Talent in collaboration wit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47148945768688,"sku":"2940148490128","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148490128_p0.jpg?v=1763703270","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148490128","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
