4.0 out of 5 stars My uncle, October 14, 2006
By 
Kathleen Pearlman "Kat" (Verona, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Hey, I read this book when I was a teenager - my uncle is the one who wrote it and it's dedicated to my father. At any rate, the story is how it is seen by the writer. That's what history or biographies - especially of people who have since moved to the Grand Ol' Opry up there - do. I was not into Country and Western, but I enjoyed, to a degree, the story of the man's life. Maybe it wasn't word for word dictation, but then the Bible, a best seller, isn't either (no disrespect meant there, folks).

1.0 out of 5 stars Armchair psychologist!!!, January 24, 2005
The author here comes off as the worst sort of
armchair psychologist, giving all sorts of "facts"
about why Hank did things, much as Goldman did
in his books about Elvis and John Lennon.
I find this sort of writing repulsive and unacceptable.
It's like reading an episode of "Behind The Music" which
was written by a guy in polyester pants and a nylon
shirt with plastic pearl buttons who's just scored
himself an "A" in Psychology101.
Woo hoo buddy. High fives.
