Download Tammy Wynette: Tragic Country Queen AudioBook Free
Tammy Wynette was one of the great female performers of the twentieth century, an musician who could plumb the darkest edges of her heart and transform private grief into general population drama. Best-selling biographer Jimmy McDonough tells the story of the small-town female who was raised to be the girl behind the microphone and whose meteoric go up led to a decades-long profession filled with tragedy and triumph. By way of a high-profile matrimony and divorce, her dreadful struggle with addiction and disorder, and the struggle to compete in a quickly changing Nashville, Tammy Wynette flipped a brave smile toward the entire world and churned out masterful hit songs filled with vulnerability, disillusionment, strength, and endurance. That is an intimate family portrait of an music icon, the Queen of Heartbreak, whose powerful tone evoked universal pain and longing even as it belied her own.
