Charlie Daniels started her career as a streetwalker when she was a seventeen-year-old single mother. Since she had virtually no qualifications, the streets seemed to offer the best way to get a comfortable and exciting life. Eventually she was forced to hand her over daughter to her own foster mother, just as she herself was given away nearly 20 years before. Charlie became one of the most successful Madams in the country, with a string of 50 girls working for her. By the time she was in her thirties, she had reached the pinnacle of her profession—but she had also realized just how shallow and meaningless her life was, and how much she wanted to get her daughter back before it was too late.

Charlie Daniels has experienced every level of the business of prostitution, been to the depths, risen to the heights, and survived both. She started her career as a streetwalker when she was a 17 year-old single mother, living in a desolate tower block. She needed the money to buy diapers. Her dream was to live an exciting life, and since she had virtually no qualifications, the streets seemed to offer the best way to get it. But the streets are run by and for dangerous people. Eventually she realized that she wasn't going to be able to look after her beloved daughter properly and was forced to hand her over to her own foster mother, just as she herself was given away nearly 20 years before. Charlie went into business as a madam. But the streets caught up with her; she got into a fight with a group of girls, stabbed one of them in the eye, and ended up doing time. In prison she saw the error of her ways but within months of coming out, circumstances had forced her back onto the game. Deciding that there was now no other way out of the poverty trap, Charlie went back into business with a vengeance, becoming one of the most successful madams in the country, with a string of 50 girls working for her. By the time she was in her thirties Charlie had reached the pinnacle of her profession but she had also realized just how shallow and meaningless her life was, and how much she wanted to get her daughter back before it was too late. She would have to reinvent herself one last time.

PRAISE FOR THE BOOK:
A tale of hard work, musical discovery, and faith, Charlie Daniels’s journey has been one of a kind. Equal parts rebel-rouser and apostle, it’s no small coincidence he launched his career by beating the Devil with a fiddle in hand. I love this man, the things he stands for, and his music. What a story.
 —Brad Paisley, Grammy Award-Winning Singer and Songwriter
Charlie is so up-front and friendly, we all assume we know everything there is to know about him. Not so. There is so much about Charlie’s life in this book that it would and could make a great movie, or even better, a long-running series . . . very informative and interesting. We all love Charlie, me more than most. Enjoy the book. I did.
 —Dolly Parton, Grammy Award-Winning Singer, Songwriter, and Actress

Few artists have left a more indelible mark on America’s musical landscape than Charlie Daniels.
Readers will experience a soft, personal side of Charlie Daniels that has never before been documented. In his own words, he presents the path from his post-depression childhood to performing for millions as one of the most successful country acts of all time and what he has learned along the way. The book also includes insights into the many musicians that orbited Charlie’s world, including Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Tammy Wynette and many more.
Charlie was officially inducted into The Country Music Hall of Fame in 2016, shortly before his 80th birthday. He now shares the inside stories, reflections, and rare personal photographs from his earliest days in the 1940s to his self-taught guitar and fiddle playing high school days of the fifties through his rise to music stardom in the seventies, eighties and beyond.
Charlie Daniels presents a life lesson for all of us regardless of profession:
“Walk on stage with a positive attitude. Your troubles are your own and are not included in the ticket price. Some nights you have more to give than others, but put it all out there every show. You're concerned with the people who showed up, not the ones who didn't. So, give them a show and…Never look at the empty seats!”
My friend Charlie Daniels is not only a country music legend and icon, he’s also a Great American, and a lover of all that matters—God, faith, family, country, and our military. If you want to live life to the fullest, read this book, as it is a road map to everything great.
