Authors Daniel Durchholz and Gary Graff have done a magnificent job of chronicling Mr. Youngs career; and the format of this book is very accessible and visually stunning.The main section of the book consists of eight chapters that cover specific periods of Youngs career (for example; "The Gold Rush; 1968-1972"). The material here is truly a delight; whether you sit down and read the chapters in order or just pick up the book and enjoy pages at random. The photos--many of them rare--are breathtaking; and the shots of concert posters; tickets; memorabilia; and "all things Neil Young" are lots of fun to look at. Also very enjoyable are the many feature essays within the chapters ("Train of Love: Travels on the Lionel Line;" "Cowgirls in the Sand: Neil Youngs Female Collaborators;" and "Aerosmiths Joe Perry on Neil Young;" to name just a few).Following the eight main chapters; you get a wealth of additional information. First off is a comprehensive four-part discography; which includes Youngs work as a band member or solo artist; singles; work as a guest artist; and tribute albums. Then comes a selected filmography; a terrific guide to Neils primary sidemen; and a list of resources. Great stuff; for sure.The icing on the cake; though; is the incredible presentation of everything. Voyageur Press gets an A++ for their beautiful; aesthetically pleasing design. Every page of this book is like a work of art; making it a tome youll want to leave out on your coffee table for everyone to enjoy. Kudos to Durchholz; Graff; and Voyageur Press for a job well done! If youre a Neil Young fan; you must have this book!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great Fathers Day GiftBy MichaelI ordered Neil Young: Long May You Run: The Illustrated History as a Fathers Day gift. My father was very pleased with the book; especially how it is organized with many wonderful photos; including early life and backstage photos; and others that fans of Neil Young may not have seen previously. My father told me that he eagerly flipped through the book just to look at all of the photos; before actually reading it. He described it as a sort of; "Rock Roll textbook; devoted to Neil Young."0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Greatly appreciated gift to a Neil Young fan!By LoriRI bought this as a Christmas gift for my brother who is an avid Neil Young fan. He already has almost everything written on or by Neil; but this book caught my eye. My brother raved about it! He told me at first he thought it was just a new compilation of already seen stuff; but as he moved through the book he found articles; reviews and tidbits never before read.I am so glad I chose this book!
