Book Synopsis
Provides a riveting account of the day Johnny Cash took the stage at Folsom Prison in California. Michael Streissguth skilfully places the concert and the album that followed in the larger context of Cash's artistic development, the era's popular music, and California's prison system, uncovering new angles and exploding a few myths along the way.

Trade Review
As an important piece of pop, rock, and country music historiography and as a fitting remembrance of the Man in Black, this . . . is essential. Triumphant on biographical and social levels, Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison nearly matches its titular musical subject for pure poetic grit. A wonder . . . an important book about an epochal album
