WOW! This book is filled with information, pictures, and interesting facts that the world never knew about Lucy. This gives you a look behind the clown and into Lucille Ball, the woman. Here is a side of Lucy few people know or see. It has great pictures of Lucy's life, both private and public, and it covers her life up until the day she was born on August 6th, 1911, till the day she died on April 26th, 1989. This pictorial biography takes you on an entertaining and informative tour through the life of a legend, a must-have for ANY Lucy fan!

I may be a little high on the praise, but Lucille Ball is truly deserving of all the accolades bestowed upon her during her life and since her death. No other performer has had such a lasting impression on the world of entertainment as she has.

One cannot forget that, despite the outrageous costumes worn and situations in which her various "Lucy" characters were involved, the fact remains that Lucille Ball was a very attractive woman. This book not only showcases the respective series but her work on the big screen as well as her early life.

Obviously, like the rest of us, the author really "loves" Lucy.

This book was REALLY good! I'm only 14 and I got this for Christmas, 2000. It had great information on Lucy and wonderful pictures that I haven't seen. I've seen a LOT of Lucy pictures but obviosly not those. If you love lucy, you should go out and get this book. It's really good.

"Lucy: A Life in Pictures" can only be described in one word - "fantastic"! The pictures are of great quality and the captions are super. To see Lucille Ball evolve from Goldwyn Girl, to what she is most remembered for today, Lucy Ricardo, is just great. I recommend.

I personily enjoyed reading this book. It had many awsome pictures and a lot of information about Lucy. There is a whole chapter about the show I Love Lucy containing summeries of some of the most faverable episodes. If you are a true lucy fan this is a great book to read.This book also has a little bit of infotmation on desi.

Lucy a Life In Pictures was one of the best books I have ever read. I am a big fan of Lucy's so by reading this wonderful book I became farmiliar with her life.The pictures and captions were great so I would highly recomend this book to anyone who Loves Lucy.I Became a bigger Lucy fan by reading this book and a Tim Frew Fan as well! -Kesia

I loved the pictures that were in the book. They were detailed enough to where it didn't tell you too much and you where never asking "why?". If you liked this book you'll love her audobiography LOVE, LUCY.

I loved this book. It is chocked full of some famous pictures of the American icon, Lucielle Ball, as well as other not as well known shots. Its filled with well known episodes like the chocolate factory and the grape smashing. I really recommend it.

The seller indicated that this was a hard cover book, which is what I was looking for (Coffee table Book). The book I recieved was not a hard cover as described. I was disappointed.

I love this book! When I first got it I glanced at the pictures, but you HAVE to read it! It's great!
