With this book he tells the full story of his life, detailing the important role that his faith and his upbringing played in giving him the perseverance he needed to get his career off the ground, and how he built his reputation on hard work above all else. Featuring a cast of characters ranging from Elvis to Dolly to Ray Charles, Rogers; story offers a candid and eye-opening look at the world of country music, showing how mainstream success led to crossover artistic partnerships that pushed his musical boundaries, but forced him to go against the trends of the Nashville establishment as he combined country music with other sounds from pop music.
