Back to the book, I am almost half way thru it and I will tell you this, it is a very good read. I have no problem with the language used like Stumpy had. Too me, the language is describing the times and if that is what was said I would rather have it straight then to sugar coat it at times.
And another note about the book, that 2nd husband of hers, Will Price, was quite the "jerk"(I did sugar coat that statement).

That works out to $17.00 or $19.50 depending on what type of shipping you use. Thanks Stumpy for the info.
She also did a interview on Good Morning America on ABC this morning as well. My wife told me about it. They showed a clip from when she spoke in front of Congress when they were discussing whether to strike a medal for Duke. While she was talking about the clip she choked up and Diane Sawyer said, "You miss him don't you" Too which she replied in one word, "Yes". They also showed a clip from The Quiet Man and she told the story about Duke and Ford playing that trick on her when Duke dragged her across the field and they put manure down. :o :lol:
I cannot wait to get the book, that is why I am heading to Barnes and Noble tomorrow.
I was there yesterday Stumpy but didn't see the book there yet.
There are a few more things from the interview that I forgot:
When asked about her favorite movies, she not only mentioned The Quiet Man, but also said McLintock was near and dear to her heart as well.
The person interviewing her asked her "Who was John Ford hugging?" She said she would not answer that question and would take that to her grave. She did say it was not the Duke. I am not sure exactley what they were talking about so I have no opinion on that.
There are a few more things but I am having a brain fart at the moment, so when I remember I will add them as well.
I was listening to the radio on the way into work this morning and was able to catch a interview with Maureen OHara about her new book, Tis Herself. I have always had alot of respect for her but after that interview by those nitwits out of Minneapolis, she took them head on and basically out classed them. She is a great lady and my respect for her after a 5 minute interview tripled. I for one will be buying her book. Here is a link to the book . She did not have alot of time to talk but when asked what her most favorite movies she played in, right away she said The Quiet Man.
