Widen contributes regularly to the entertainment section of the Milwaukee Journal. In this book, he has combined his photography and writing skills with his love for Blues Music. The result is a unique and interesting book about the heart of the blues.

As a sometimes reader of the Widen library of articles and tomes, I find "Tombstone Blues" to be one of his best. Having had the privilege or pre-reading much of the text and knowing the author's deep penchant for the blues, I am happy that he has successfully combine them in such a magnificent way. Best of luck with "Tombstone Blues".
