Reviews

[Harvey Jason · Rating 5 out of 5]

A truly wonderful book: insightful, well-researched and beautifully written. I could have gone on and on. IHaving had the very great pleasure of working with Stanley Kramer three times and knowing him quite well, his character, his sense of dedication and conviction to the highest standards of morality were brought out succinctly and beautifully. A terrific read, and one that’ll stay with me. Highly recommended!!
