Rave review indeed!!!  I just read it.

The book is sharp, yes!  But the reviewer goes for the easy pun ("this book has bite") and calls it campy?   :-

Not before the "on sale" date has passed.

The review is positively amazing! It's been too long since we last saw DS mentioned in TV Guide. And this book is definitely on my MUST list now, given the fact that Grayson had a tiffy over a certain other castmate's casting. I've GOT to know more about THAT.

I'll be buying a TV Guide even before I buy my morning coffee, Julia99.  Congratulations and well deserved. More praise will follow this post I'm sure. Love me some Grayson!

Is there anyway that we can have it posted here? Tried to find in on the Net and I didn't find it.

See Reply #12.  Someone wrote for permission, but I'm not aware that they've received it yet.

It's only in the print edition, but the good news is that it's currently on most newsstands.  If you're interested in an excerpt:

Jamison portrays the actress as a smoking, drinking ass-pincher who swore like a Teamster yet was deeply sensitive, especially when TV GUIDE ran a scathing piece about her in 1971.

I had no idea this book existed until I read this topic.  I just ordered it from Amazon and it arrived yesterday.  Can't wait to start reading it!

I'm saving up to get it. I can't wait! I read a few chapters on-line and I was instantly hooked - And I hate reading! I am so proud of everyone involved and so proud for Grayson.

It's one of those books you can (and should) read again, again, and again. Particularly after watching several DS episodes that prominently feature Grayson, I'm often drawn to revisit a chapter or two.
