Frankie's autobiography,
Chasing An Illusive Dream, is
a story that contains the drama and
pathos that inspired the old cliché,
"Truth is stranger than fiction." This
story of the pop singer is about fame
and the loss of it, separation from
family and children, and a dramatic
return to the Lord.
"The first part of the Frankie Valens
story is a rags to riches to rags tale
that started in 1967 but left him with
enduring celebrity status." Linda
Stinnett,

Frankie says this
book will help give you the background
and history of the mistakes and the
accomplishments he made, and the
incredible journey he took. His
feelings of rejection at every turn, the
constant fear of never being accepted or
good enough to make a difference, yet he
experienced fame and fortune, later
becoming a gospel recording
artist, travelling with his wife Phyllis
nationwide for 18 years in a full time
music ministry.
