The Judds: A Biography

Wynonna Judd has a smile like Elvis Presley’s a voice comparable to Patsy Cline’s and a vocal style that’s (almost) all her own. Onstage she shares the music and the limelight with her Kentucky-born mother Naomi. Together the Judds have become the hottest country-western duo singing today. They’ve brought country back to its roots with a rockabilly beat and helped bring Nashville renewed success as a music capital.   Author Bob Millard traces the colorful lives of mother and daughter from Naomi’s tragic loss of her brother in childhood to her escape into early marriage through the “U-Haul years” when Wynonna and her sister Ashley were toted through countless cities in search of their mother’s dream. Theirs is a wild inspiring story of love and devotion fights reconciliations and bald ambition. But most of all it’s a story of finding harmonies—in music and in the women themselves.
