Press Reviews:
A comprehensive biography of the famous entertainer. ― Chicago Tribune

According to this huge warts-and-all biography, the entertainer was driven by a never-fulfilled fantasy that he could rescue his mother form madness through his success. The result is an " often fascinating, prodigiously researched book." ― The New York Times Book Review
