JUDY GARLAND JOHN FRICKE If you just love Judy Garland, then this is a "must have" book. Refreshingly, Judy Garland-World's Greatest Entertainer is not written in the tabloid style of many of the prolific biographies about Judy. This is an open, honest almost scholarly look at Judy's life. It spans her theatrical career from age two until her tragic death at age forty-seven. The text is a rich and lavish exposition that has been written by a man who obviously loves Judy's talent and his admiration shows in his thoughtful manner in which he presents the great legacy that was Judy's life. |
| If "a picture is worth a thousand words" then this book has to be one of the richest in publishing history. There are dozens of black and white stills but also the book contains more color photographs than I have ever seen on Judy.
This book is of the quality in a book that we call "coffee table" eye catchers. When you buy this book, do yourself a favor and read it from cover to cover. It belongs in every library of Judy lovers. Then if you wish, put it on the coffee table. It is this Munchkin's opinion that John Fricke is the world-leading expert on the life and times of Judy Garland. Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 97-72763
