5.0 out of 5 stars
Best of all Gable biographies,
By
This review is from: Clark Gable: Biography, Filmography, Bibliography (Paperback)
In my research for Warm and Wonderful Stepmothers of Famous People (also carried by amazon.com), I looked through virtually all Gable biographies, including the one by Harris. This is the best by far. It has everything but is not gossipy, is very well-written--I found myself reading much more of it than my needs required. Chrystopher Spicer liked his subject yet was thorough and objective--all necessary for a good biography, and with all the biographies I've used in research for my books, I should know.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Well Written and Objective,
This review is from: Clark Gable: Biography, Filmography, Bibliography (Paperback)
This is a impressively researched and objectively written biography. Spicer nicely balances information about Gable's personal and professional life without being gossipy or dragging the text down with lengthy plot synopsis of films. I suspect the high price of the book may have turned some readers off, which is unfortunate. For anyone wanting to know more about the King of Hollywood, this book is absolutely worth reading.
