Robert Shelton wrote the rave review of Bob Dylan in theNew York Times that is generally credited with being the piece that "discovered" him in 1961, just after Dylan arrived fresh from Minnesota to New York City as an aspiring folk musician. Twenty-five years later, Shelton, who had faithfully followed Dylans career ever since, finally published No Direction Home. Now back in print, here is the story of Bob Dylan, man and musician, lover and explorer, loner and phenomenon.
