Shania Twain: The Biography

Additional Shania Twain: The Biography Information

Shania Twain has risen from humble beginnings in a dirt-poor mining town in Northern Canada to amazing heights of superstardom. At the age of eight her mother was taking her to sing in lumberjack bars; now she shares a Swiss mansion and an estate in New Zealand with her record-producer husband and is worth more than $100 million. Hits such as "Man! I Feel Like a Woman" and "That Don't Impress Me Much" ensured that her third album, Come On Over, became the bestselling album in country-music history and her astounding crossover to mainstream music swiftly followed. Her life, however, has remained the subject of speculation and controversy.

British music journalist Robin Eggar has talked to Shania's close friends, family, business associates -- and to Shania herself -- to build an insightful, rounded portrait of a woman whose Cinderella tale has become a fable for our times.

What Customers Say About Shania Twain: The Biography:

I went out and bought her latest albums to listen. What a fun song. Let alone Shania Twain. And I bought this book to read, wanting to know more.

But I have heard her songs before.I mean I do like You're Still the One and absolutely adore That Don't Impress Me Much. Strange, I have never been a fan of country music. Surprisingly I have Come On Over (International version) in my CD collection. Incredible. It was not until a month ago that I saw THS: Country Divas which showcase Shania, Faith Hill and Dixie Chicks.

Guess it was one the MUST HAVE CD of the 90's. It was a great story about someone who had nothing to having everything in life. I live in South East Asia and no one here is a fan of country. And I wasn't disappointed. I was all of sudden interested in Shania's story.

I knew she wasn't American but Country Divas provided some interesting stories. Well written and there are moments where you wonder, she really did all this to achieve her dream. Now I am a fan.not about her music alone, but her journey to achieving amazing things in life.

The story starts with Shania's great-grandfather's amazing story of survival, and ends when the breakthrough artist Shania Twain released her Greatest Hits album in November 2004. I received this book 2 days ago and I was so satisfied by the service. The book is written by a British celebrity journalist Robin Eggar and it is just great. It is a very-well researched book that gave me information about the Queen Of Country I have never heard before, even being a big fan of hers since 2002. For Shania fans and non-Shania fans, this book is the ultimate story of her rags-to-riches adventure.
