FREEHOLD, N.J. (AP) — Bruce Springsteen is heading home to start a book tour later this month.

Springsteen announced a nine-stop book tour Monday that will begin at a bookstore in his childhood hometown of Freehold on Sept. 27.

Springsteen’s memoir, “Born to Run,” will be released the same day. The book tour comes after Springsteen and the E Street Band wrap up a 75-show music tour on Wednesday in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Fans at the ticketed events will get a signed copy of the book.

Springsteen’s book tour will also stop in New York; Philadelphia; Seattle; Los Angeles; San Francisco; Cambridge, Massachusetts; and Portland, Oregon.
