Editorial Reviews

Taylor Swift was just a 16-year-old Nashville schoolgirl when her self-titled first album was released; eventually this double-platinum seller would enjoy the longest stay on the Billboard 200 of any album released during the entire decade. That, however, was just the first stage of the birth of a superstar. This generously illustrated biography by music journalist Andrew Vaughan traces her beginnings from a fourth grade Pennsylvania poet to an internationally known singer-songwriter and generous philanthropist. Enhancing that fascinating story is a plethora of photographs, album artwork, and archive memorabilia. A full-fledged tribute to a celebrity pop sweetheart.
