The author goes into too much mundane detail without truly telling HER story. And if youre going to drop names; get THEIR stories right: when mentioning Linda Ronstadts fashion sense; he attributes it to "her (Ronstadts) Southern upbringing." Oh; my heavens - shes from Tucson; AZ. I guess thats "Southern" to him. And Heart? Not a Canadian band; unless Seattle has changed flags. Ill stick with liner notes and the more personal book compiled by her family.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Good read.. but perhaps take with a "pince of salt"...?By Mr S. DuhigGood read giving more interesting information about Evas life but the author seems to me to have written in a somewhat tabloid style and again for me is a little "jaundiced" in parts. Nevertheless a useful companion to; and with a different perspective than; Songbird the official biography.3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Sad Life not Well-CapturedBy KaseyMy impression was that the author had a lack of source material and was forced to embellish what little he had to make the book a decent length. I finished the book knowing little more about Eva Cassidy than when I started.
