I Walked the Line: My Life with Johnny by Ann Sharpsteen, Vivian Cash

1.0

---

I was intrigued by this book which is the only time you get to hear Johnny Cash's first wife talk about her view on what happened in their marriage (she died in 2005). What a let down the book was. 3/4 of the story was the entire collection of love letters he wrote her while he was overseas in the Air Force before they married. Incredibly boring! The last tiny part of the book was an angry rant on why June Carter Cash was a wicked, drug-addicted woman who intentionally set out to steal away her weak husband. To the end, she had forgiven Johnny for being weak but had never forgiven June for what she did to her or her children.
