Doug Jr. witnessed and then relays some incredible facts that not only challenge some of the popular Crawford narratives, but of Hollywood as a whole by just giving a factual account of life events that are often at odds with the sensationalist stuff you read about Hollywood. I feel a bit guilty having purchased it to learn about Crawford because Doug Jr. is such a fine and classy human being who led an interesting and full life. His life is worth learning about and at times is so incredible you have to stop to think about what you just read. His time in the UK was truly something."; 9.3 X 6.2 X 1.7 inches; 431 pages .
