The Silver Snarling Trumpet: The Birth of the Grateful Dead

by Robert Hunter

Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter’s memoir weaves through his early days with Jerry Garcia like Jerry’s guitar during a jam. Written in 1961 and thought to be lost, this is the origin story of The Grateful Dead, and how two close friends began a musical collaboration that lasted for decades.
