hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition black boards, red cloth spine, and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Preliminary Page Quote by Liz Brown-Lavoie, Berklee College of Music; Discography and Index. Illustrated with two sections of black-and-white photographic plates and portrait photographic frontispiece. A neatly scripted gift inscription on the last rear blank endpaper. "Patti LaBelle has enjoyed phenomenal success for three decades - as a member of the girl group the Blue Belles in the sixties, and the leader of the flamboyant Labelle in the seventies, and as a Grammy-winning solo artist in the eighties and nineties. She has won admiration not only for her music, but also for her tireless charity work and devotion to her fans. Yet until now the public has known only Patti LaBelle the star. Finally, in Don't Block the Blessings, we meet Patti LaBelle the woman, who recounts the ups and downs of her life, including the personal tragedies that haunted her even as she reached every professional goal she set. Patti's early childhood in southwest Philadelphia was happy, despite her paralyzing shyness. But when her parents' relationship ended violently, Patti's world changed forever. Finding her captivating voice in a Baptist youth choir helped Patti through this heartbreaking time. It also began to transform the painfully quiet high school dropout, who thought of herself as ugly, into the outrageous star with the five-inch pumps and the five-octave range. Music helped sustain her through good times and bad, but Patti also used it as a hiding place in the early years of her marriage and when she helplessly witnessed all three of her sisters die of cancer before the age of forty-four. Only on the eve of a day she never thought she'd live to see did Patti start to really live. In the down-to-earth style she's famous for, Patti tells the real story her fans have been waiting for - years of crippling fear that she cloaked with non-stop cross country performances. A terrible sense of guilt, which she tried to assuage through tireless charity work. And finally, a hard won feeling of peace and purpose, a deep personal understanding of what's important in life and how it's always there for all of us - if we don't block the blessings." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
