INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A fascinating behind-the-scenes account of the making of Bruce Springsteen's ground-breaking album, Born to Run, one of the most iconic records in rock history - A lovely book about the making of Born to Run. It goes into great detail and great depth about what the record is, what it means, what it meant to us... The book means a lot to me.--Bruce Springsteen

Absorbing. . . A fascinating portrait of a talented, ambitious and stubborn young man with strong creative instincts.--Los Angeles Times

From the opening piano notes of Thunder Road, to the final outro of Jungleland--with American anthems like Born to Run and Tenth Avenue Freeze Out in between--Bruce Springsteen's seminal album, Born to Run, established Springsteen as a creative force in rock and roll. With his back against the wall, he wrote what has been hailed as a perfect album, a defining moment, and a roadmap for what would become a legendary career.

Peter Ames Carlin, author of the bestselling biography, Bruce, now returns with the full story of the making of this epic album, combining lush music writing with unprecedented inside access to Springsteen and his inner circle. Carlin reveals a treasure trove of untold stories, detailing the writing and recording of every song, as well as the intense and at times tortuous process that mimicked the fault lines in Springsteen's psyche and career, even as it revealed the depth of his vision. A must-read for any music fan, Tonight in Jungleland takes us inside a hallowed creative process and lets us experience history.
