England’s Dreaming

Description

Winner of the Ralph J. Gleason Award
Includes a foreword by Johnny Marr and an introduction by Jeremy Deller and Scott King

The history of punk, its progenitors the Sex Pistols and the late 1970s come together in this pop-culture classic full of anecdotes, insight and exclusive interviews.

England's Dreaming tells the sensational story of the meteoric rise and rapid decline of the last great rock 'n' roll band and the cultural moment they came to define.

'Still the strongest history of punk' Guardian

'Not only the definitive account of the times and its subject, but one that has come to define the writer himself. Jon Savage literally wrote the book on punk, and that's some achievement' Johnny Marr
