Wow. I love Cary Grant, I love Katharine Hepburn enough to tolerate Spencer Tracy, and now I am in love with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. Now, this happened before I read this book. But this book was there with perfect timing for me. I loved how long this book was, it meant it could cover many things in minute details. I love that it shows the good and the bad of everyone involved. This is not a fan book, this is not a tell-all tabloid trash book, this is almost a scholarly book, rich in details. For anyone who wants to know what Hollywood was like in the (dare I say it?) Good Old Days, this book is great. Details and more details. I love hearing about, say, the songs that were sung on the plane on the way to DC to appear at a hearing. Wonderful details.
9/10
