Maybe in November 2009?
Reading the reviews here I'm wondering that it has been announced for years? German and GB Amazon have published the releasing date for November 2009 for more than a year now. So maybe they are the ones who know it for sure ...? I just hope Kris also knows about it. German Amazon even already has the price. Anyway it will be priceless. I can't wait reading it. So Kris, please hurry up just a little bit for making the book the nicest Christmas present in ... 2009!
5* in advance...

Still waiting and will keep waiting until the day it's here!
Like so many of Kris's fans I'am still waiting for his Book and will keep waiting for it. I just hope it will be out in my life time. I rated it 5 stars... because I don't need to read it to know it will be a fantastic book. Just knowing that he is a Rhodes Scholar tells me this Man will write a Brilliant story of his life.
For some reason it doesn't sit well with me that some other writers can write his life story. To me those books are not genuine and I would not believe everything in them. The only book I will believe is from Kris himself.

Do it or Don't Do It
If you are not going to write the dam book, just kill it and be done with it. At least put out a REAL Publication date.

where is this book?
Its now 2008 and no sign of this book, does anyone know whether its going to be published?Was looking forward to it - then - nothing!I've given it 5 stars as I'm sure it will be worth them if it materialises!

It'll definately sell!!
I know I can't wait to read this book. I've been hoping it would happen for about 20 years now. Go on Kris... make it happen, there are bound to be thousands like me out there, dying to read your own story.
Pretty Please!!! ... Read more

Johnny Cash: The Man, The Myth, The Christian, The Rebel
"The Man Called Cash" is a wonderful biography of Johnny Cash, the Man in Black. Steve Turner has done an outstanding job giving a timeline to the career and, more importantly, the personal life of Johnny Cash, the man with the most distinctive voice I've ever heard. I was fortunate to see Cash in concert twice, once in a big arena, and once in a very small club. The experience (especially in the club) was absolutely electrifying; this book satisfied my desire to truly understand the man behind the music.

This book provides details of a life more raucous, and with more highs and lows than most people can even imagine. The relationships Cash had with his two wives, his children, and an amazing assortment of musical legends are reported here without any discernable bias, and Turner is quick to point out the bad with the good, particularly as the bad normally centered around substance abuse (in particular amphetamines,) and led to horrifying low points including an alleged suicide attempt in a cave. One issue that existed for Turner was sorting out all the information and discerning truth from fiction: Cash was a master storyteller, and events in his own life may not have always been immune from that trait, as over the years accounts of various events changed or were possibly embellished. Turner is very candid about that, and when uncertainty exists about an event, he always explains how the recollections of Cash (or occasionally others) differed over the years, and even between his biographies. With the passage of time people's memories fade, and when viewing fifty years of musical and personal history in retrospect, confusion is sure to exist on some points. I liked the way Turner reported the latest and most likely versions of stories, but when recollections or earlier accounts differed, he provided the reader with the other information as well.

The book emphasizes the importance of Christianity to Cash, and elaborates at length on the enigmatic co-existence of such a naturally rebellious man and his religious beliefs. Also of great interest are the musical partnerships and feuds Cash had over the years with greats such as Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis Presley, Bono, and Rick Rubin. Of course the book delves deeply into the personal relationships in the life of Cash, and especially emphasized the importance of June Carter Cash and his family.

Of the books I have read about Johnny Cash, this is my favorite: Steve Turner has masterfully balanced the professional and personal, and includes all the conflict and triumphs of the one and only Man in Black. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the history of music, and particularly country music.

We sure do miss you, Johnny. Music's just not the same since you've been gone.

Man called Cash
This is my second audio book Ive listened to. Kristofferson makes it seem like he's right next to me telling this story. Cash humbles himself before God and surrenders only to his Lord.

This is one of if not the best on CASH.
This is a very honest view of the man in black, you see his faults as well as The man we have come to love. This book goes deep...

Great book
The Man Called Cash is a very good book. very informative.I think a child 11-12 years old could read it and beable to understand what they are reading.I think it gose behond some of the other books I have read on Johhny Cash.I would recomend it to any one who is interested in seeing where Johnny Cash were he came from and the legacey he left.

Fantastic biography of a true ledgend
I am a legally blind man and and I usually get my books to listen to through the library, but after I saw the movie walk the line I felt I had to know more about the ledgend of Cash through an audiobook if I could find one. I was lucky to find this one. I love the way Kris Kristofferson reads the book. Since he was a friend of cash's, he put feeling into the reading like no other person can. Through the author's extensive research on Cash, I found out things I never knew about him. The Movie is good, but if you really want to know who Cash is, just by this and Listen to Kristofferson tell you about his friend. The man in black. ... Read more
