Waging Heavy Peace: A Hippie Dream by Neil Young

3.0

The book reads like a very personal blog which has been curated into something larger without the benefit of a professional editor. That gives it a very raw feel which is probably what Neil was going for. It took me a bit of effort to get through, I believe as a result of the editing. For example, individuals important to Young are reintroduced as if you've never seen them before, sometimes in adjoining chapters. Some of the story gets repetitive, but with novel nuggets strewn in.

All in all its a very personal and approachable piece that makes me feel like I know who Neil Young is much more so than I did before.
