Product Description

Pam's talent for the blues and a burning passion to prove herself, drove her into the smoky bars of Nashville when she was only 15--and into a destructive relationship with alcohol that landed her in a near-fatal, disfiguring car crash. But Pam wouldn't let her scars or countless operations stop her from achieving her goals. Here is her inspiring story of tragedy and ultimate triumph, overcoming the odds and thriving as a celebrated performer, single mother, and one of the most successful women in Nashville. Photo insert.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worthy of its subject, November 30, 2005

By	G. Binda (Metro DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After reading the book, I felt very sorry for Pam. Not because of anything that did or did not happen in her life, but rather because she's the victim of a poorly written bio. There's very little personal revelation, particularly with regard to her adult life. There's just a lot of repetitive stuff about her professional work and the struggle getting to the top - "Oh woe is me, no one in country wants to accept me as a rocker. Why can't Reba paint the way for me" Whatever. The author really does an injustice to Pam making her sound like a whiny little follower.

Pam is a great talent. I don't believe the book is an accurate record of her life.
