Songteller: My Life In Lyrics

Dolly Parton's fame has two distinct lanes. One is musical. As a writer and performer, she sits at country music's top table with Hank Williams and Johnny Cash. She can play around 20 instruments, including the fiddle, dulcimer, mandolin and pan-flute. She has written, by her estimation, around 3000 songs, 175 of which are featured in a new book, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics. Must read.
