钻石与铁锈 – And a Voice to Sing With by Joan Baez

20世纪传奇歌手琼·贝兹，以真挚坦诚的笔触回望自己的传奇人生，讲述了一个桀骜不驯的天才少女如何成长为美国民谣的关键人物，进而又成长为以歌声和行动对抗不公和暴力的和平使者。

从童年和青春期的成长故事，到作为横空出世的民谣少女，面对一夜成名的悸动与挣扎,再到与迪伦的相知相爱、与马丁•路德•金并肩同行,她穿越了20世纪60年代的风云悸动，也经历了数种错综复杂的价值观交战，但仍然保持着纯粹，实现着自我和理想主义的并肩成长。她穿越过战地与鲜花，为争取正义与和平积极行动，曾冒着生命危险在空袭中访问越南。

这是一部关于成长，关于爱与勇气，关于六十年代的青春，也关于自我挣扎和坚定信仰的回望之书。她写道，“这人世间的挣扎啊，变成了我们的眼泪和笑容。”

The perfect time for a reissue: In October 2009, PBS will air a ninety-minute primetime special on Joan Baez as part of the Emmy Award-winning American Masters series. Told often from Baez’s perspective, but supported by a rich performance and historical archive, the documentary centers on her career as a musician, power as an artist, those who influenced her, and those she championed. She will also be on a 27-city U.S. tour starting July 2009..

A musical force and a catalyst for social change: At the age of eighteen Baez was an international star with a Time magazine cover story; fifty years later she has thirty-three albums to her credit. She also marched alongside Martin Luther King, Jr., was jailed for supporting the draft resistance, and sang in the first Amnesty International tour. An extraordinary woman who has led an eventful life, Baez’s memoir is as honest, unpretentious, and courageous as she is. .
