BOOKS

Robertson was a storyteller in every medium — not just in song, but on the page. His memoirs, children's books, and collaborations brought the same vivid detail and narrative power that defined his music.

TESTIMONY (2016)

The New York Times bestselling memoir covering Robertson's life from his childhood in Toronto and summers on the Six Nations reserve through The Band's rise, the Dylan tours, and the farewell concert captured in The Last Waltz. Raw, vivid, and deeply personal.

LEGENDS, ICONS & REBELS (2013)

Co-authored with his son Sebastian, Jim Guerinot, and Jared Levine, this illustrated book introduces young readers to the musicians who changed the world — from Ray Charles to Johnny Cash to Bob Marley. A love letter to the music that shaped Robertson's life.

INSOMNIA (2025)

Robertson's posthumous memoir picks up where Testimony left off — chronicling his forty-year creative partnership with Martin Scorsese. From late-night film sessions to the making of Raging Bull to their final collaboration on Killers of the Flower Moon, it's an intimate portrait of two artists pushing each other forward.

HIAWATHA AND THE PEACEMAKER (2015)

A children's book written with Sebastian and illustrated by Caldecott Award winner David Shannon. The story draws from Robertson's Mohawk heritage, retelling the legend of Hiawatha and the founding of the Iroquois Confederacy — a tale of unity and peace.
