"One of the best biographies of the year." - St. Louis Post Dispatch "Rekindles the magic of the century's greatest love stories." - Daily Express "Wonderful." - USA Today "Creates a picture of a fascinating woman and an enduring love affair." - Boston Herald "The first inside story of the world's most glamorous family." - Sunday Mirror Infodad blog, 7/9/15 "There is a fair amount of information here about Monaco, much of it interesting history.The book's discussion of how their public-relations work was handled by Nadia Lacoste certainly offers insight into celebrity management and marketing--at least in the 1950s.
