I've seen this on eBay quite a few times. It seems to make the rounds once in awhile! Thanks for putting a link to it here for anyone interested!

I wish I had Chasing Down The Dawn and Revealing Jewel. Is there some interesting details? Like, did jewel have a guitar when she came to San Diego? While she was homless, did her Mom live in a car too? I did read a few thing, but never really understand how things went...

I think Revealing Jewel is the best of all her books and it has the most interesting information about her life from her closest friends and family. Her mom, brothers, Ty Murray, Steve Poltz, Alan Bershaw and guys in her band are all interviewed in it and it has a lot of great photography behind the scenes like in the studio and at home.

From what I read in the book, it is my understanding that Jewel had a van, and her mom had her own van. They parked them next to each other, and that's how they lived. They took scraps of fabric and fashioned curtains in the back so they could sleep. You should def. read this book, I learned quite a bit from it.

I got four books. But gotta say that I don't really get the poems. Maybe it's the language barrier, or maybe I'm just illiterate, or maybe I'm just not a fan of poetry. But I bought the book anyways Just wanted to 'have' it

- A Night Without Armor
- Chasing Down the Dawn
- Revealing Jewel
- Angel Standing By: The Story of Jewel

I have both the book of poetry and Chasing down the Dawn (which is my fav)a s well as the revealing boko and a biography.
I must say that "Chasing" really influenced my journal writing. I started to imitate her style a bit with much more reflection and mood, or at least trying to incorporate that in a journal entry. I remember buying taht book and read it in a few days, awesome book.
