Abstract
Those of us who love James Melton's singing have been waiting a very long time for this informative and revealing biography/memoir. The author, hi s daughter and only child, attests that she spent "twenty plus" years writing it, and the book has been well worth the wait. Drawing on family letters and newspapers (thanks mainly to her mother's voluminous scrap books), she has interwoven her father's dynamic life with her own participation and memories in a volume redolent of triumph and later troubles.
