review 1: What a wonderful biography of a great man and actor. Written as a story, this biography is informative, with a little humor thrown in, and will carry the reader through the book with interest, not just facts and dates. The photographs bring family and friends to life and make you feel you are a part of what was happening. Although it was choppy in a few places as far as time line goes, it is very well written. You get to know the friends and family members as well as insight into the personality, morals, and ethics of the person, Cary Grant, not just the actor on the screen. Only wish it would have more of the actual shows dialog when he did "A Conversation with Cary Grant" - one can never get enough!
review 2: While I will admit that I have always found C... moreary Grant to be handsome, I never imagined that I would find myself reading books about his life! It came about entirely by accident as I was standing in the bookstore a few months ago looking at a table of new books and came across the book of reminiscenses recently written by his daughter (Good Stuff by Jennifer Grant). I stood there paging through it looking for photos and found myself reading the first chapter. That was that - I put it on my library hold list when I got home and thoroughly enjoyed the read. I learned of this book which is a compilation of memories of Grant shared by many of his friends, many of whom were famous themselves. I was impressed, yet again, by what a bright man of character he was and by his devotion to his only child and his wife, Barbara. less
