After viewing Bette Davis movies I was interested in knowing more about the woman. Her life was like many of the movies she made. I thought this book provided a very unbiased look at her life, and used many of the actresses diaries, scrapbooks, and letters to offer a first hand account of her life. After finishing this book, I was glad that I chose one that was not written by Bette Davis herself since I feel she would have manipulated details to make herself look better. Very good book.
