Pretty Good for a Girl
The first book devoted entirely to women in bluegrass, Pretty Good for a Girl documents the lives of more than seventy women whose vibrant contributions to the development of bluegrass have been, for the most part, overlooked. Accessibly written and organized by decade, the book begins with Sally Ann Forrester, who played accordion and sang with Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys from 1943 to 1946, and continues into the present with artists such as Alison Krauss, Rhonda Vincent, and the Dixie Chicks. Drawing from extensive interviews, well-known banjoist Murphy Hicks Henry gives voice to women performers and innovators throughout bluegrass's history, including such pioneers as Bessie Lee Mauldin, Wilma Lee Cooper, and Roni and Donna Stoneman; family bands including the Lewises, Whites, and McLains; and later pathbreaking performers such as the Buffalo Gals and other all-girl bands, Laurie Lewis, Lynn Morris, Missy Raines, and many others.
She Wrote Her Blueprint
This book is about the turbulent trek of one woman, as a toddler, teen and a tormented adult, who wrote her blueprint and lived her life in order to ultimately, learn her lessons-but did she? Having been brought up in a strict Catholic environment where physical affection was not shown, Lee looked for love in all the wrong places. At sixteen and a virgin, her boyfriend's brother raped her. Was this the reason she went on to having three marriages, two of which could be described as disastrous, and four children by four different fathers? At twenty years of age she fell in love with a married man, and longed for him for almost half her lifetime. Lee blames no one but herself for the traumas that transpired over her lifetime and thanks God for her life today.
