5.0 out of 5 stars Freddie Prinze Sr., August 19, 2004
By R. Brown (Chicago,IL) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read this book over and over again and I love it. It gives you alot of information from the day he was born until he died. I thought his mother did an exceptional job writing this book and letting the newer generation know his legacy. Reading this book I felt like I was there. I definetly give this book 5 stars and recommened any fan of Freddie Prinze Sr. to buy it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for fans, March 17, 2008
This is a good book, but then again it's the only one ever written about Freddie Prinze, Sr. I agree that there are alot of things left out of this book, which sort of leaves you scratching your head. Maybe the book was written in a hurry in an effort to put out some truth. It would have been nice to have a more well rounded story of what Freddie's life was like growing up, which would have included more information about his father and other aspects of his life. Also, there wasn't that much information on Freddie's then wife Kathy. It would have been nice to have had her input, but as the book stated, it was about a mother and son. I really wish someone would write a more detailed account of Freddie's life, he's missed alot, and many of the fans would enjoy it. If you are debating on getting this book, I would recommend reading it, of course it's sad, but you do get a glimpse of what Freddie was all about, through his mother's eyes.

5.0 out of 5 stars His Life As Told By His Mother, May 23, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I suppose a mother couldn't tell his story any better and she did a good job, although in reading other articles about Freddie's life, it appears that she left certain things out, like his prior suicide attempt (how serious it was I don't know) when his first love left him, that he used to play Russian Roulette with his gun, that he started using cocaine at age 16 and that there was a suicide note. I don't remember reading any of this in the book, but I read this in 'Morbid Curiosity-Celebrity Tombstones Across America'. Quite possibly she figured the readers didn't need ALL the gory details.

I don't know--Freddie seemed like a really good guy and a great son, but I did find him demanding and mostly thinking of himself before others. He wanted to get to the top and wouldn't stop until he got there. But like his manager Ron DiBlasio said at Freddie's funeral that "...he remained a child in a very adult world." Another example of Hollywood destroying a life.

Freddie deserves to always be remembered, and I am glad his mother wrote this book to perpetuate his memory.
