From the Back Cover

"A remarkable journey across the arc of a singular career--sometimes harrowing, ultimately heroic, revealing a tremendous strength of character as the Boss stayed true to his ideals, even in the face of what he calls 'catastrophic success.' A great read about a genuine American hero. If you're huntry to learn about the true soul of this remarkable man, look no further: it's all here."--Paul Zollo, author of Songwriters on Songwriting

"Bruce Springsteen has been interviewed around the world on radio and television and by newspapers, fanzines, and general-interest and music magazines. Many of his most engrossing conversations are housed in this book. Fans should welcome this valuable collection. I know I do."--Harvey Kubernik, author ofCanyon of Dreams: The Magic and Music of Laurel Canyon
"A great collection. The only other way to experience this much of Springsteen's 'voice' is to see him in concert."--Patrick Harbron, longtime Springsteen photographer
"Springsteen on Springsteen is a fine and necessary addition to the literature on this incredible artist, performer, and man."--singer-songwriter Elliott Murphy, from his foreword
