Woodrow Wilson Guthrie has had an immense impact on popular culture throughout the world. His folk music brought traditional song from the rural communities of the American southwest to the urban American listener and beyond. But Guthrie's music was only one aspect of his multifaceted life. As well as penning hundreds of songs, Guthrie was also a prolific writer of non-sung prose, an artist and a poet. This collection provides an examination of Guthrie's cultural significance and an evaluation of his impact on American culture and international folk-culture.
