If you're a fan of Golden Era Hollywood this would be a good book for you. All I knew of Esther Williams was she was a swimmer that became an actress and was Lorenzo Lamas' step-mama. This book certainly fills in the blanks! In her own words she gives us a good look into the workings and personalities of old Hollywood (including a little dirt on some of her fellow celebrities) . She certainly doesn't hold back but isn't too vicious.
