Read all about the rise of an American classic

This biography deals with the early career of John Cougar Mellencamp. It was written just before the release of the 'Scarecrow' album and details the struggles of young John Mellencamp, including details about his childhood, school life and a lot about his early days on the road. If you are a Mellencamp fan, you will want to have this book! This is not a gushy fan book, but rather a no warts hidden biography.
