Book Reviews of Sing a Sad Song: THE LIFE OF HANK WILLIAMS (Music in American Life)
Book Review: The Life of Hank Williams
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the first book ever written that actually told the true life story of country music singer Hank Williams. Roger Williams interviewed country music performers who either worked for Hank or shared the stage with him. There are inside looks at Hank's problems and his relationships with his family and fellow performers. Hank's career was short. He died two months after his 29th birthday. However, in his short life he became a legend and fifty years after his death his music is still going strong. I recommend that every country music fan buy this book.
