And she's still on her way...

Awesome biography with great sense of detail in the information... Great info about Shania's life... One bad point: the story ends as Shania starts her Come On Over tour... (a little outdated) but Shania's childhood is what matters... GREAT!!!

surprisingly tasty

Picked it up waiting in line in an east-kansas wal-mart. Couldn't put it down. I was expecting your garden-variety teen idol trash that you usually read while waiting in line to pay for your Funions and Blue Star Ointment. I picked it up for the cover shot of Shania, but kept it for the intensity of the words that lay behind the photo. Gray is obviously a guy as passionate about Twain as I am. To him, the scribe, I would like to say: "Keep scribblin'". After tossing a Carmex and a pack of Chiclets in my bag, I gladly paid the blue-vested cashier and rushed home to learn the rest of the story. Thank you Shania, for the music, and Mr. Gray for the courage to bring her story to us!On Her Way is a must-read for anyone who waves the young-country flag.

THIS GIRL HAS COME A LONG WAY

This book was better then I expected and the one thing that I really like was the author took actual quokes that Shania had made over the years to tie everything together. He didn't over praise her nor did he bash her but showed how far she'd come from singing in a Las Vegas style place in Canada to recording one of the best selling albums in Country Music history. The photos were great and over all, it was worth reading.

A must read for any Shania Fan

This is a great book about Shania. It has an in depth look into the bad and goods times of her life

This book does a good job of telling Shania's life. The book also gives us insight on her musical influences. The author goes a great job telling us about her life.
