Book Reviews of Eva Cassidy: Songbird

Book Review: Lovely reading for new and old Eva fans alike...
Summary: 5 Stars

Being an Eva fan myself, it might be hard for me to give an objective review, however most people that buy this book will be fans already, and it is also hoped that some new people will discover Eva as well through this excellently designed and produced book.

The book contains many unseen pictures, artwork and text by and about Eva.
The chapters are named after Eva's songs, and they all include contributions from many of Eva's friends and family together with a biographical narrative that threads throughout the book.

The book begins with a nice dedication to the people of the British Isles, who took Eva to heart.

Eva's life is discussed in-depth, with many revealing facts and discussions about events that shaped Eva, and her work.

The many songs she arranged, and the bands and musical sets she appeared in are talked about, and also her struggle against the disenchantment of the music industry.

You will want to come back to this book again, and again, to see a lovely picture, or read a passage that tells of Eva's absolute gentleness and beauty.

All in all, this is an absolute must for every Eva fan, and it is well worth a look for anyone else who wants to discover the fascinating and so tragically short story of a beautiful and talented woman who against all the odds managed to make it to the top. In style.
