[edit] "the writing of his over 1,000 songs"

I've read the book and I dont recall much that relates to "the writing of his over 1,000 songs". It was about his poor childhood, travelling around the US as a Hobo on railway goods trains, some fruit picking (like The Grapes Of Wrath ) and at the end only a little about getting work as a singer. If you expect a lot of comment about him writing his songs you are going to be disapointed, so I've decided to delete that comment. (And sorry, but personally I found it a rather dull read, especially the too-long part about his childhood). 80.2.192.179 (talk) 13:55, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
