Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Letters that helped Christopher Reeve survive his crippling accident, blended with commentary from his wife.
Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.

From Booklist
By the third week after the riding accident that rendered him paraplegic, actor Christopher Reeve had received 35,000 pieces of mail, and the stream of cards, letters, and packages, though naturally tapering down, kept coming. Reeve's wife, Dana, selects from that postal tidal wave and presents her choices in thematic chapters, such as "Overcoming Adversity" and "Cures and Recommendations," interspersed with smaller gatherings of recollections from correspondents who knew or had met the actor. Dana contributes an introductory note for each chapter and a handwritten final word to her husband. A handful of photos of Reeve before the accident, photos sent with well-wishes, and some famous-name notes (e.g., those from President Clinton, Paul McCartney, and Penn and Teller) make appropriate illustrations. Ray Olson
