Would have liked more history on him and his brothers. But I enjoyed it

The Tug-0f-War of broken marriages

I like how the story was written in a precise polite way. It is amazing what people can do in a divorce situation, when children are involved. I recommend this book to ones who are interested in Hollywood Stars. This book was very well written and filled with emotion.

I felt that this book was well written. Divorce is a terrible thing. The female is usually the one that is given custody and the one whose "story" is heard. As Bill tells in this book, there is another side to the story. I applaud him for telling his story. I think that every man that has went through a divorce or, is going through one currently, should read this book. I wish that my father could have read this.
Wow! Great job Bill. I wish that I could thank you in person.
