WINNER OF THE RALPH J. GLEASON AWARD
INCLUDES FOREWORD BY JOHNNY MARR

Award-winning, Sunday Times bestselling author Jon Savage's definitive history of punk, its progenitors, the Sex Pistols, and their time: the late 1970s.

A pop-culture classic full of anecdote, 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.

NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

'Still the strongest history of punk.'
GUARDIAN

'The best book about punk rock and pop culture ever.'
NME
