review 1: As a big Andy Williams fan, I was excited to hear that he had written an autobiography.I thought that the book overall was good - talked a lot about his personal life, and especially his early professional career.I found however, that the details were lacking - he talked about certain aspects of his life and career, but often did not go into great detail - more of a "on the surface" approach.This is probably fine for most readers, but I am one who likes to know all of the little details - go more into depth about certain memorable performaces or those he worked with. In comparison, the Matt Monro biography was more in depth with regard to his professional career, which made that read just a bit more enjoyable.Again, though - especially with his recent passing, this book w... moreould still be a great read for any fan.
review 2: This is a lack luster autobiography by Andy Williams. It was a fluffy book for a Sunday when I was tired. He threw around lots of names and events -- the Kennedys, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., and a host of others. It appeared like pathetic name dropping.I read the book quickly. I always liked the squeaky clean image and his voice, thus reading this wasn't a total waste.But, I cannot recommend the book at all. less

A good book by a really good guy. It almost made me want to go to Branson, Missouri. Almost.
