review 1: Robert Wagner married Natalie Wood twice. I saw "West Side Story" in early 1962 as a Freshman in college. At that time I didn't know she had been a child actress from the age of four, but her persona struck me to the extent that I tried to see all of her subsequent movies. She seemed to captivate Wagner, who was devastated when they were divorced knowing that he would forever love her. The news of her accidental death when she was just 43 was horrifying. The book covers his life as an actor--it was published before his role on television as Agent Dinozo's father on NCIS, in his early 80s. It was an interesting read, and includes his association with many of the stars of the film industry. I share his love of golf, and liked his first encounter with four famous actors on th... moree course when he was just 11 years old.
review 2: I had mixed feelings about this book. It felt sort of like looking at the covers of the National Inquirer (which is as far as I look with it), but it was also hard to put down. Wagner certainly knew lots of famous people and gave little insights into many of them. At the same time, he reveals himself as someone who seems rather unconcerned by infidelities, while still professing to be a devoted family man. The cover photo is killer though! less

What a player this guy was . . . still can't decide if he killed Natalie Wood or not.
