Book summary


In this collection of more than 60 of his published articles from the New York Times and elsewhere, Bragg relates stories that made headlines everywhere, such as the Oklahoma City bombing or the Susan Smith murder/kidnapping scandal, but he also tells stories of people who live beneath the media's radar, such a graveyard worker in charge of keeping the plots of the poor in shape, and a poor woman faced with a dilemma when the land her house sits on suddenly becomes worth a lot of money.


Media reviews


"While the book is awkwardly written and jumps dizzily in time, it does reveal much about Wynette, the country music business and addiction. And there are some amusing anecdotes."
