4.0 out of 5 stars Beauty from within, December 20, 2000
By E. Glenn (Waynesboro, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is well done, and a loving tribute to Elizabeth Taylor. The only disappointing factor was that many of the photgraphs were ones frequently seen. It would be nice to see those rare photos of Miss Taylor, and more candids! I also found the book interesting in the fact that as Elizabeth has gotten older,her inner beauty shines through even stronger. Just look at those eyes - they tell volumes!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book I have ever read on Elizabeth Taylor!!, January 5, 2003
By A Customer
I absolutely fell in love with this book!
Larissa Branin is a wonderful biographer of a wonderful actress.

Many books I have read on Elizabeth Taylor are too judgemental, and really were just written so that the author could state what was on their minds, and not to portray the actress. Also, they either gush over Elizabeth pathetically, or viciously attack her. But Branin, simply takes us through
Elizabeths life,letting us make our own opinions.

Some books have either too many pictures or too many small, insignifigent details, but this book was perfect, and I was sad when it was over.

An honest portrait of The Queen.
A beautiful Biography!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful tribute to Elizabeth Taylor, November 14, 2000
By A Customer
Thoughtfully and fairly written...gorgeous color and black and white photos of Elizabeth. She is depicted not only as the glamorous movie queen but, as the child star, mother, and AIDs activist.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice pictures, but lacking in content
This book is, indeed, what its title claims it to be: pictorial. The pictures are good, so if you want to feast your eyes on the lovely Elizabeth Taylor, buy away. Read more
