Two sisters. Two voices. One Heart.
The mystery of "Magic Man." The wicked riff of "Barracuda." The sadness and beauty of "Alone." The raw energy of "Crazy On You." These songs, and so many more, are part of the fabric of American music. Heart, fronted by Ann and Nancy Wilson, has given fans everywhere classic, raw, and pure badass rock and roll for more than three decades. As the only sisters in rock who write their own music and play their own instruments, Ann and Nancy have always stood apart - certainly from their male counterparts but also from their female peers.

In 1989, as US news outlets declared an end to Operation Just Cause, Craig Morgan was part of an elite group of military operatives jumping into the jungle along the Panamanian border on a covert operation. Fans know the country music star from his hit songs and acclaimed albums, but there’s a lot more to him—a soldier who worked with the CIA in Panama, an undercover agent who fought sex traffickers in Thailand, and a dedicated family man who lives the values he sings.

Scotty has/is a truly amazing young man!
The 1st time we saw him in the tryouts of American Idol, I turned to my husband and said, "he's going to be the one to watch this year!" I'm so glad he won. I knew he was an amazing young man then and over the last 5 years, I've thought the same several times. And now his book..... I purchased it this morning and couldn't turn it off until the end.
Scotty, congratulations to you and to your parents..... you truly are an amazing child of God!

Totally awesome
Would you consider the audio edition of Go Big or Go Home to be better than the print version?
Yes I would, because I think hearing Scotty reading the story. I was able to picture it better, able to see what he was going through at the time.
What did you like best about this story?
His experience on American Idol
What does Scotty McCreery bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He brings it more to life. Hearing him read it, made it feel more real to me.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Oh yes, it's been on my list since it became available
Any additional comments?
Scotty McCreery keep up the great work!

I have the Hard copy of this book and have read it many times. I have to say The Audible Version is 100 times better. It is narrated by Scotty McCreery himself and seems like you are setting next to him carrying on a normal conversation. I would HIGHLY recommend this to ANYONE.
