Willie Nelsons Letters to America by Willie Nelson

Author: Willie Nelson

Following his bestselling memoir, It’s a Long Story, Willie Nelson now delivers his most intimate thoughts and stories in Willie Nelson’s Letters to America.

From his opening letter “Dear America” to his “Dear Willie” epilogue, Willie digs deep into his heart and soul–and his music catalog–to lift us up in difficult times, and to remind us of the endless promise and continuous obligations of all Americans–to themselves, to one another, and to their nation.

In a series of letters straight from the heart, Willie sends his thanks and his thoughts to:

Americans past, present, and future,
his closest family members, andhis parents, sister, and children,
his other family members
his guitar “Trigger”,
his hero Gene Autry,
the US founding fathers,
his personal heroes, from our founding fathers to the leaders of future generations and to young songwriters as well as leaders of our future generations.
Willie’s letters are rounded out with the moving lyrics to some of his most famous and insightful songs, including “Let Me Be a Man,” “Family Bible,” “Summer of Roses,” “Me and Paul,” “A Horse called Music,” “Healing Hands of Time,” and “Yesterday’s Wine.

I couldn’t put this one down. I have loved every book Willie has written and the same goes for this one. As one of my favorite shirts says, “Listen to Willie.” ❤️ Megan                                                                                                    rated it: 5.0 from 5.0

Just finished this book tonight and also just watched the most recent Willie appearance on Jimmy Fallon, where he asked Willie why he decided to write this book and Willie responded, “Oh, I don’t know. Somebody said something about money.” Hahahahahaha! Willie in a nutshell. Whatever the reason, I loved it. Any book of Willie wisdom is five stars to me.

I grew up listening to country music as a child and I hated it. As I became an adult I really started enjoying country music since the songs all have a story to tell. I love Willie Nelson’s book. Willie spreads a message of love and explains the lyrics to his songs so that we understand each letter and its intended recipient. What a great walk down memory lane. A must read.
