Book Overview
Swinging Sisters is a one-of-a-kind book, because there is no other story like it.
Come along for the ride with a Depression era all-girl band as they tour the country in a 1928 Packard hearse. The Texas Rangerettes garner headlines in Variety and Billboard for several years before taking a fork in the road that subsequently has Paramount Studio cameramen camping on the women's doorstep hoping to film a history-making event featuring four band members.
Based on a true story, Swinging Sisters celebrates the life of a family rooted in the Irish famine who achieves success and happiness in two diverse careers.

This charming story is a smooth read all the way through; the blend of fact and fiction is seamless. Christensen used historical facts in a clever and entertaining way. The improvised dialogue, appropriate to the time and place, sometimes reads like the script for an old-time musical where Garland and Rooney say, "Hey, Gang, let's put on a show." And you know what-this book would make a fun and lively movie. A song title introduces each chapter, and with lots of music throughout the book, you might find yourself singing along, tapping your toes, and feeling good.
