Satan is Real: the Ballad of the Louvin Brothers by Charlie Louvin and Benjamin Whitmer

Satan is Real: the Ballad of the Louvin Brothers by Charlie Louvin and Benjamin Whitmer. Country music memoir, 305 pages. I'm not a big fan of country music, and I've never really heard of the Louvin Brothers, but the book had an interesting cover, some cool things said about it by people I respect, and a first chapter that grabbed me, so I read it. The first chapter, where Charlie beats the hell out of his older brother for getting drunk and disrespecting their mom, was the best part. The rest of it was mildly interesting, and probably best for someone who has actually heard of the duo and has some interest in their music. Check our catalog.
