My transistor radio, shoved under my pillow at night, could pick up one of the few radio stations that broadcast 24-7. It was a thousand miles away in Fort Worth, TX, and I got lot's of exposure to early country music. George Jones was a real part of that mix.This is my first encounter with author James Hoag, and certainly won't be my last.  He does a nice job of weaving history, biographical details, and the nostalgia of songs into a good read.  For a while, I was transported back in time. I really enjoyed James writing style, and will be checking into his other books.For most of us, music plays an important part in our lives. I love to get a glimpse of the musicians behind the music.  Their lives hold lessons for us. This was a wonderful walk down memory lane.
