An interesting look at Son House's life from the sacred/secular transition view. Question I have is, "Is it factual"?

Well the first thing that jumps out at me is the writer's claim of Public Domain for the House photo. This is one of a series of photos taken by Giuseppe Pino in 1970 as Stefan correctly attributes above.
