In the concluding volume of his groundbreaking study, Ian Bell explores the unparalleled second act in a quintessentially American career. His instincts, formerly unerring, deserted him. The second volume in Ian Bell's magisterial two-part biography of the ever-evolving and enigmatic Bob Dylan By the middle of the 1970s, Bob Dylan’s position as the pre-eminent artist of his generation was assured.
