John Denver: A Life from Beginning to End

John Denver was a musician with a roving free spirit. He left on a jet plane and promised to be back again. Just like the seasons, he went through plenty of changes, but he always returned to the source of his inspiration. John Denver was inspired by nature and the love of life in general. He wrote songs about how sunshine made him happy and how the natural disposition of Mother Earth made him high.

John Denver was not the flashiest of characters. He was often described as being rather plain, sometimes even a bit dull, with his floppy hair and wire-rimmed glasses. Yet even his harshest of critics had to admit that there was a pure intensity in his songs. Denver tapped into the beauty and love that all of us long for deep down in our souls. And, behind the wholesome, carefree facade was a man wrestling with inner struggles. Denver’s life wasn’t as idyllic as his music might suggest. He faced many challenges, including a battle with alcohol addiction. This book takes you on a journey through John Denver’s life and music, exploring the man behind the melodies and the legacy of one of the most beloved artists of his time.
