Robert Shelton became Bob Dylan's friend, champion, and biographer. No Direction Home took 20 years to complete. It was first published in 1986, and now more than 25 years on, this new edition will be published to coincide with both Bob Dylan's 70th birthday and his tour of Australia in April 2011. The new book will include original parts of the manuscript not originally included, an updated discography, bibliography and new footnotes. This is the most comprehensive biography ever written about Bob Dylan and will be a high quality edition that fans will love.
Robert Shelton was the principal chronicler of the 1960s US folk revival and wrote many books on the subject. However, he is most famous for writing No Direction Home with the support of Bob Dylan.
