“‘Even in his state, his semi-coma state, he squeezed my hand,’ she told Jenna Bush Hager in an interview alongside her husband on TODAY Monday. ‘And he laid there, and this tear just fell. And I went back to the doctors and I said, ‘We’re fighting this.’” – Mary Travis on TODAY
“Despite the singer’s limitations, ‘I don’t think he’s ever seen himself as a victim…’ – Mary Travis in People
“We all have mountains to climb and battles to fight—I’m no different. It’s my hope that someone may read my story, and either be inspired to keep up the fight and/or detour off the roads that are dead-ends,” he says. “I have always been transparent in the mistakes I’ve made—the book is no different.” – Randy Travis in Billboard
“’He’s a warrior. He’s an angel,’ Mary says when asked what Randy is like as a husband.” – Taste of Country
With candid, never-before-told details, Travis recounts his troubled youth full of drinking and stealing cars, a tense relationship with his father, and the rollercoaster ride of more than 40 years in the music and acting industry. He also shares the highs that came after playing “Forever and Ever, Amen” for the first time; having countless number one hits and selling more than 25 million albums; and most importantly, the faith that has seen him through all of it.
Travis will have a booth with books for purchase and daily photo opportunities during the upcoming CMA Fest in Nashville, Tenn., as well as a book tour in select markets. For more information about Forever and Ever, Amen, the tour and Randy Travis, please visit www.RandyTravis.com.
