Highly regarded as one of the most important and influential writers working out of Portland—one of the hottest music cities in the United States—his column has given many successful Pacific Northwest bands their first press exposure. He appears regularly on radio shows including Live Wire! and Oregon Public Broadcasting's Think Out Loud program discussing the week's cultural events. He has written extensively on Bruce Springsteen, most recently covering his 2012 tour. White lives in Portland, OR.

I'm sure the knee jerk reaction is to discount this as just another Springsteen book. Big mistake. This coffee table-sized tome is a must for any Springsteen fan as it is a perfect retrospective of Bruce's catalogue complete with incredible photographs, legendary quotes and a valuable timeline. This book belongs prominently displayed among your keepsakes and is an essential addition to the Springsteen library.

I have a lot of books about Bruce Springsteen. I have LOTS and LOTS of books about Bruce Springsteen. Some very good ones, and many which rehash the same material. But my god, this one puts them all to shame. The writing, the editing, the knock-em-dead images I've never seen before....WOW! Like a lot of people I've grown weary of all the articles and press thrown at this one guy who has dominated American music for the past four decades. Somehow, Ryan White found a way to tie it all together in a way that hasn't been done before. The maniac-fiend die-hard Springsteen fans will find a lot of new material here, as will Ivy League professors looking for new ways to compare Bruce to John Steinbeck and Mark Twain. When I photographed Bruce and Clarence for the cover of the album "Born to Run", Clarence said "There will be books written about this album!" He was right, of course. Only this book is about Bruce's 17 studio albums, as well as a detailed look at the timeline of his life and career. Written with an intensity of detail that does justice to its subject, it's a breathtaking look at Springsteen as he has evolved over the lifespan of my generation. If you only own one book about Bruce, this would be the one to have.
