Chrissie Hynde, frontwoman of the Pretenders, has been one of the most adored and widely imitated figures in rock since she burst into the scene thirty-five years ago. This long-awaited memoir tells her life story in full and fascinating detail, from her all-American 1950s childhood in Ohio to her classic baby boomer seduction by the rock of the 60s; from her sojourn into the seminal '70s London punk scene to her emergence with the Pretenders into instant stardom. She brings to these pages a fantastic eye for detail, a razor-sharp sense of humor, and a fearless and sometimes naked emotional honesty. Every line, every word of it is unmistakably hers.
