Waging Heavy Peace is the remarkable biography of rock icon Neil Young. Neil Young is a unique figure in the history of rock and pop culture over the last four decades. Reflective, insightful, and unabashedly honest, Waging Heavy Peace is his much-anticipated autobiography. From his youth in Canada to his wild journey to California, through Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills & Nash, to his conquest as a solo artist and his current status as one of the last authentic survivors of rock 'n' roll - this is Neil's story, told in his own words. Young offers a kaleidoscopic view of personal life and musical creativity; it is a journey that spans from the snows of Ontario to the LSD-laced avenues of 1966 Los Angeles and the contemplative paradise of Hawaii today. Along the way, he writes about music, the casualties, the girls, and the drugs; about happy family life as well as the health challenges he and his children have faced; about guitars, cars, and sound systems; about Canada, California, and Hawaii. Honest, imaginative, and revelatory, this book ranks alongside the classic autobiographies of Bob Dylan and Keith Richards.
