The Incredible Story of a Country Music Legend. Few artists have
left a more indelible mark on America's musical landscape than
Charlie Daniels. Readers will experience a soft, personal side of
Charlie Daniels that has never before been documented. In his own
words, he presents the path from his post-depression childhood to
performing for millions as one of the most successful country acts
of all time and what he has learned along the way. The book also
includes insights into the many musicians that orbited Charlie's
world, including Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Tammy
Wynette and many more. Charlie was officially inducted into The
Country Music Hall of Fame in 2016, shortly before his 80th
birthday. He now shares the inside stories, reflections, and rare
personal photographs from his earliest days in the 1940s to his
self-taught guitar and fiddle playing high school days of the
fifties through his rise to music stardom in the seventies,
eighties and beyond. Charlie Daniels presents a life lesson for all
of us regardless of profession: "Walk on stage with a positive
attitude. Your troubles are your own and are not included in the
ticket price. Some nights you have more to give than others but put
it all out there every show. You're concerned with the people who
showed up, not the ones who didn't. So, give them a show and Never
look at the empty seats!" PRAISE FOR THE BOOK: A tale of hard work,
musical discovery, and faith, Charlie Daniels's journey has been
one of a kind. Equal parts rebel-rouser and apostle, it's no small
coincidence he launched his career by beating the Devil with a
fiddle in hand. I love this man, the things he stands for, and his
music. What a story. —Brad Paisley, Grammy Award-Winning Singer
and Songwriter Charlie is so up-front and friendly; we all assume
we know everything there is to know about him. Not so. There is so
much about Charlie's life in this book that it would and could make
a great movie, or even better, a long-running series . . . very
informative and interesting. We all love Charlie, me more than
most. Enjoy the book. I did. —Dolly Parton, Grammy Award-Winning
Singer, Songwriter, and Actress My friend Charlie Daniels is not
only a country music legend and icon, he's also a Great American,
and a lover of all that matters—God, faith, family, country, and
our military. If you want to live life to the fullest, read this
book, as it is a road map to everything great. —Sean Hannity,
Host of Hannity and Author of the New York Times Bestseller

discovery of music, and his fight to make it in a profession that
most just don't! He shares the why, who, and how of really hard
times taught him life lessons, and those wonderful events and
