Jim Ed Brown’s Wife Recalls Life With Opry Star In New Book

Jim Ed Brown’s wife Becky Perry Brown goes on the record in her new book, Going Our Way, and explores her life and the love she shared with the Grand Ole Opry and Country Music Hall of Fame star during their 54 years of marriage.

“I wrote it simply to tell my story and set the record straight,” says Brown. “History should reflect the truth.”

Brown and collaborator Roxane Atwood take the reader on an engaging journey from the couple’s Arkansas early days, to their first date and the production of Jim Ed’s last album – and everything in between. The book includes hilarious tales from the road, as well as a full frank account of the affair that tore their marriage briefly apart. Autographed hardcover and trade paperback options of the Clovercroft Publishing offering are available for purchase now at GoingOurWay.net.
