"The lyrics of the Grateful Dead are words of religion for many of the band’s dedicated fans. Thank you, Stew, for taking these words to live by and organizing them in a way that makes it simple and fun to dive into and explore, just like a great adventure on a bike. Readers are definitely going to enjoy the Ride, Ride, Ride!!!”
