"Few Hollywood careers have been more fabulous and more scandalous, or have changed so rapidly from rags-to-riches and from triumph-to-tragedy, than that of Joan Crawford.  Born Lucille Fay LeSueur, she rose from being a telephone operator in Kansas City to becoming an actress at MGM, where she found fame, glamour, romance and ultimate stardom.
In this definitive and powerful biography, Bob Thomas has recreated the real life Joan Crawford: her struggles to reach the top; the many scandals that haunted her life; her drinking; her tortured relationships with her adopted children; and her terrible, lonely death.  Here is her complete and extraordinary story, in which the true character and personality of this unique star comes vividly to life."
