Reviews

The details of Johnny Cash’s personal life and heady, turbulent rise to stardom will be a boon to fans, as well as steeping readers in the music of the 1960s.
*Vancouver Sun*

Julie Chadwick has brought the story to life in a book I found hard to put down. In fact I read the manuscript I was sent in just a few days. There were many stories that were new to me and even those I already knew often had additional information.
*Peter Lewry, author of A Johnny Cash Chronicle: I've Been Everywhere*

Offers a very different and occasionally unflattering look at a country music legend, a side of the story not often seen: the human side.
*TheRecoup.com*

A compelling read…Chadwick's great success is in her study of the relationship of two men who were completely dependent on one another.
*Folk Roots with Mike Regenstreif*

A must-read regardless of your musical taste.
*GuitarGirlMag.com*

I have read tons and tons of music bios — in fact, I'll read almost any music biography. Honestly, this was one of the better ones. Like in the 90 percent rating percentile.
*Adrian Chamberlain, entertainment editor at the Victoria Times Colonist*

The Man Who Carried Cash is riveting.
*Shelagh Rogers, host of CBC's The Next Chapter*

Reveals the complicated, exhilarating and entertaining story of Saul Holiff and his management of American icon Johnny Cash in The Man Who Carried Cash.
*VintageRock.com*

An excellent book, full of insight about what made The Man in Black tick. If you’re a Cash fan — and who isn’t? — this is essential reading.
*Musicrow.com*

A must-read for anyone interested in the life and career of Johnny Cash and the man who truly made it happen for him.
*Criticsatlarge.ca*

A trip with this book feels like a criminally detailed peek into a very complex relationship.
