After reviewing the Cash Family Scrapbook, I must say I enjoyed it!!! Seeing the old photos of Johnny, his boyhood growing up, his children and grandchildren...my only regret is that I wish I could have met him in person! He is and will always be my hero!!! I highly recommend this scrapbook to all those Johnny Cash fans. I only wish it was not so expensive!!
Great photos and information!

I used this book, for research during the pre-production on 'Walk The Line'. Having grown up in a southern family, the Carters and the Cash family music and lore were know and spoken of quite frequently. The photos of the family and the insight into this unique and loving family will be of great interest to fans and serious students of the southern music tradition. I must also HIGHLY reccomend Cash by Johnny Cash with Patrick Carr. Because of my parents and grandparents, I grew up with a knowledge of the Carter family and Johnny Cash. After reading Cash, I really felt like I really understood some of the journey that Johnny had been through. If you're really interested in what forces drove the man with the man with the venerable voice, read this book! Cash: The Autobiography
A MUST FOR THE CASH FAN!

This is an excellent buy for any Cash fan. The photos are great, the poetry is beautiful, and the family history is more than adequate for getting a good feeling of where the man in black came from. The early promotional photos from Sun Records are just awesome and from reading the poetry it seems as though everyone in the Cash family has a knack for words. This book really has it all, insight into the lives of each Cash family member, poems written for mothers, fathers, grandfathers, a family tree, and even photos of former spouse's children! Just a great book to have.
