What does it cost to become a legend?

She possessed the most powerful voice in American music. She conquered addiction, poverty, and an industry that tried to break her. But the real Etta James-the woman behind "At Last"-remained a mystery even to those who loved her most.

At Last! The Etta James Chronicles reveals the untold story of a five-year-old gospel prodigy who became a teenage R&B sensation, lost everything to heroin, and clawed her way back to become one of the greatest vocalists of all time. This unflinching biography explores the triumphs that made her immortal and the tragedies that nearly destroyed her.

From the chitlin' circuit to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, from the depths of addiction to the heights of artistic achievement, this is the complete story of Jamesetta Hawkins-the fighter, the mother, the addict, the survivor, and the icon who taught us that redemption is always possible.

Her voice was a gift to the world. Her story is a gift to us all.
