This summer also saw the publication of The Gospel of The Hold Steady: How a Resurrection Really Feels (Akashic Books), a new oral history by Michael Hann and The Hold Steady available now. A Limited-Edition Package – including a copy of the book signed by the band as well as the signed chapbook, TJK on THS, a behind-the-scenes photo journal by guitarist Tad J.
