The editors of LIFE Books have written a commemorative book in honor of the Queen of Pop, Whitney Houston titled LIFE Whitney 1963-2012: A Tribute. When Houston died shockingly young at 48 years old on February 11, 2012, headlines around the world lamented her passing and dubbed her the Queen of Pop, posthumously. Those headlines weren’t wrong. In the 1980s and into the ’90s, Whitney ruled the pop world-her songs were the soundtrack of our lives. More: Her own life was extraordinary, and in the end extraordinarily tragic. In this new commemorative, LIFE Books seeks to celebrate-and try to explain-Whitney Houston. What a singer. What a life. –yvette caslin
