Comments: This book is very well put together, combining some excellent pictures and interesting and ACCURATE text. You'll see Judy at two years old in a white ruffled dress all ready to sing onstage, the original "Dorothy Gale" look, some lovely photos leading you through Judy's flourishing years at MGM, her life as a wife and mother, ready to embark on the concert circuit, and finally, the last years of this beloved legend. The pictures are beautifully subtle and never too revealing, always candid and mostly nostalgic. The text is never incriminating or bitter against its subject. It is, "an unabashed celebration of the wonder of Judy Garland", and is a charming addition to any Garland collection. |
