Don Helms Book Settin' The Woods On Fire
Settin' The Woods On Fire
I would like to read this book if anyone would lend it to me? I will return it with a CD copy of Don's "Mothers Best" instrumentals after a couple of months. 20 tracks recorded in 1950-1951 live radio shows. Note I am in the UK.
Alan.

You mean you don't want to pay over $500 for a paperback?

Well, you CAN order a used copy in very good condition for the low, low price of $88.95 (plus $3.99 s/h)Bill McCloskey wrote:You mean you don't want to pay over $500 for a paperback?

I think that discontinued books like this are good candidates for digitization- the publisher could have them scanned and sell digital copies for $10-20.
I would like to see the US Copyright laws revised so that the rights revert back to the author(s) if it has been more than, say, 10 or 15 years since the publisher last printed an edition. "Play me or trade me" as they used to say in baseball.

Yes I've seen those but I'm a steel player not a banker!! ha ha.
I just want to read it and return it afterwards. My wife bought me the Hank Williams Mothers Best, Box set last year and the tracks and chat between the band and Hanks are fantastic. I have since read a couple of books on Hank and would love to hear Don"s perspective.

I was just thinking that it would be really cool if we had a Lending Library here at SGF!Alan Cook wrote:I just want to read it and return it afterwards.

Setting the Woods on Fire
Sorry to say that I probably won't be letting my autographed copy (by Uncle Don himself) out of my sight. You might try to go directly to Ms. Hazel or through Bobbe Seymour's shop to get a copy. She's a sweetheart and Bob or Vic at Bobbe's shop may be able to help.

The publisher is:
Audrey's Dream Inc.
Nashville, Tennessee
www.audreysdream.org
Unfortunately the website is no longer there.
I think it was more a charitable organisation (connected with Audrey Williams) and only published 2 other books, one of which was Lycrecia Williams' story and the other a collection of sympathy cards and letters to the Hank Williams family.
