"This fine biography of country music star Patsy Cline begins with a compelling and telling image. It’s May Twenty-five-year-old Patsy is riding on the top of the backseat of a red Oldsmobile convertible in the Apple Blossom Festival parade in her hometown of Winchester, Va. . . Margaret Jones has relied heavily on personal interviews—lots and lots of direct quotes here—to produce this comprehensive biography of country music’s first ‘crossover’ superstar. The result is a chatty, intimate, compulsively readable picture of not only the tragic Patsy, but also of those who knew her and the world which produced her and her music. The book is long on atmosphere and fact." --Washington Post Boo•

Honky Tonk Angel: The Intimate Story of Patsy Cline

"She was a hurt individual, a great cut-up on the outside but hurting on the inside . . . The secret behind Patsy was how she lived every note and word of her songs . . . You could feel the hate and bitterness, her own experiences. Patsy had a story to tell, and nobody ever knew what is was. If there were parallels in her music, she had a way of identifying with them." -- musical colleague Lightnin' Chance, page
Patsy Cline () was a rising vocal superstar - and arguably one of America's first crossover artists, with her records charting high on both the country and the pop Top format - who is now probably chiefly remembered for the popular songs 'Walkin' After Midnight,' 'I Fall to Pieces,' and 'Crazy' (her three biggest chart successes . . . except this book reveals she did not particularly want to record or release any of them at the time - ?!), plus her untimely death in a tragic airplane crash.
Nassour's Honky Tonk Angel was sort of an uneven biography. I was not a fan of the many recreated conversational scenes - there were numerous pages of family members, friends, or fellow musicians recounting moments in which both their and Ms Cline's often-colorful exchanges were presented in ful
