I have bought every book on Ms. Streisand that offers except one; which I will purchase soon and have been thrilled when I receive them. This purchase however was a bit of a joke. Not only have I been unable to read it due to the extremely small print but the photos look like they have been copied from an old Xerox machine. I will keep the purchase for the cover only but I won't be buying any other from this American Legends series that's for sure.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
