Book Reviews of The Times We Had : Life with William Randolph Hearst
Book Review: An Intimate Glimpse at Hollywood and famous personalities
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book years ago and because of my ongoing interest in WR Hearst and Marion Davies read it again. Marion made some recordings shortly after her long time (30+years) lover W.R. Hearst died in 1951. She then did nothing with them and died in 1961. Two editors in 1975 took these tapes, edited them and the book appeared in 1975. This book is a time capsule of her years with Hearst and the people she met from Carole Lombard to a young Jack Kennedy.
What to know what Charles Limbergh was like personally? G. B. Shaw? What really happened the night Thomas Ince died?
Marion has come back to this world and invites you to sit with her while she tells you how it all was...
Want to know what Orson Wells thought of the comparison of her and Citizen Kane? It is in his forward...
All I can say about this book is WOW.
