by R. Serge Denisoff
Exhaustive and scholarly it may be—this is no picture biography—but as a study of country music "outlaw" Waylon Jennings, this is not what you would call good-time reading. Denisoff, a sociology professor at Bowling Green State University, touches on Jennings' early days with Buddy Holly's band and his later drug problem, but there are too many asides on West Texas history and the Grand Ole Opry.
