From the cover...You've known Tanya Tucker as volatile, exciting, a temptress, a down-to-earth country girl. But you've never seen Tanya Tucker like this. In her revealing, intimate book, Tanya takes us from the highs to the lows of her life, showing us a side of herself that's never before been revealed. Born into poverty, Tanya grew up in a family that had come out of the Oklahoma Hills in the Great Depression. Early on, she decided she wanted to become a country music singer. Tanya talks candidly about the whirlwind of sudden celebrity, the partying and nightlife that took over her life, the most disastrous relationship of her life (with Glen Campbell), and the low point of being checked into the Betty Ford clinic after her family held an intervention. She also gives her "take" on celebrities such as Andy Gibb, Clint Eastwood, Tammy Wynette, Clint Black, Oprah Winfrey, and many others. It's all here, in Tanya's inimitable voice. NIckel Dreams is a moving, exciting book, one that fans of Tanya Tucker hae waited years for.
