just finished the new book by Elizabeth Partridge 'This Land Was made for You and Me, the Life and Songs of Woody Guthrie'. It is written for young adults, ages 12 and up, and I was impressed by the sophistication it assumes and respect it gives to readers of that age. Other than including lots of photos and illustrations, and having somewhat larger type, it was not toned down for a younger audience in many ways. It would need more footnotes and endnotes for a more scholarly audience, but it tells the tale of a complex human being, suffering from an unknown illness for much of his adult life, with sympathy, but not attempting to make a hero out of him, or excuse him, but to know him. Pretty well done, i would say, recommended to readers of all ages, the larger type was welcome for me, I must admit!
