This is a book I had been hoping would be written, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I was already aware of a good bit of this information, but found a lot of new things about Joyce. The book was well written and easy to read. Highly recommended, especially if you listen to Joyce's radio and/or TV programs and admire her as I do.
