.".. Gil couldn't find Guatemala on a map when committing to the adoption of his daughter. He didn't know anything about starting an international adoption. He didn't know anyone who had adopted internationally. He did have a goal of adopting a child from outside the United States. It wasn't inspired by a mission trip or another experience; it was something he wanted to accomplish. His wife didn't share in the goal nor did many of his friends; however, God turned his goal into a calling - through a nocturnal dream - when his daughter yelled from a mountaintop, 'Daddy, come and get me' "--Back cover.

A journey through the raw, real, and oftentimes graphic events of Gabriel’s life, The Breaking is the true story of a love that blooms between a young woman and the God who refused to give her up without a fight. You will discover, like Gabriel did, that despite your past, God is well able to set your best days in front of you.

The daughter of the Grand Ole Opry’s official photographer reminisces about witnessing country music history alongside her father in this memoir. Like many little girls, Libby Leverett-Crew’s father, Les Leverett, often had to work nights and weekends. But unlike many girls, Libby’s father took her along to his job—where he was the official photographer for the Grand Ole Opry for more than thirty years. First at the historic Ryman Auditorium, and later at the Grand Ole Opry House, Libby Leverett-Crew was a witness to country music history. And now some forty years later, she pays tribute to the wonderful people who touched the lives of her entire family while at the same time hearing witness to the powerful impact a loving father can have on his child’s life. In Saturday Nights with Daddy at the Opry, Libby Leverett-Crew shares not only her remarkable memories of those Saturday nights with Dolly Parton, Minnie Pearl, Roy Acuff, Bill Monroe, and countless others, including assorted Muppets, astronauts, ballet dancers, actors, Andy Warhol, and k.d. lang, but also a beautiful father-daughter relationship. The book also includes more than 100 photographs from her father. Praise for Saturday Nights with Daddy at the Opry “Les Leverett has added so much class and talent to our world; I’m not surprised that his daughter, Libby, has done this book. Yeah, Libby good for you. I’m proud to have baby-sat you from time to time backstage. You were always a joy.” —Dolly Parton “There’s an old song, “I Was There When It Happened So I Guess I Oughta Know.” That’s [Libby’s] story inside the world of country music. I knew her first as Les Leverett’s kid. It must be in the water at their house because she’s come into her own as a masterful photographer. She also wields a pen that has a detailed memory for great storytelling.” —Marty Stuart
