Summary
A down-home story of a down-home girl. Loretta Lynn, darling of country music fans, tells in her own words of her youth in Butcher Holler, Kentucky; her marriage at 14 to Doolittle "Mooney" Lynn; being a grandmother at age 29; and her rise to country music's Best Female Vocalist. She comes off as a simple person, caught up in the whirlwind of fame, yet wishing to spend more time with her family.
