Rating:  Summary: Listmaking and decorating Review: I bought this book to see how a world-famous TV personality could lead a parallel romantic life for many years in Montana unknown to his wife and children in New York. The writer does not broach the question with any depth at all. Essentially she writes of travel, menues, decorating, designing cabins and yards, itemizations of wildlife seen, and on through out the book. There aren't any insights on conflicting relationships that I could identify. I wouldn't buy it a second time.
Rating:  Summary: Elegant Writing Review: I was an avid fan of Charles Kuralt and now I'm Pat Shannon's fan too. What a wonderful writer she is! With elegance and grace, she writes of her long relationship with Charles - telling her side of the story that made headlines a few years ago. And telling his side too. I enjoyed this book immensely -
Rating:  Summary: For Lovers of Charles Kuralt and Montana Review: When Charles Kuralt died in July 1997, I cried. At the end of 1997, when the annual obituaries were listed, I cried again. Okay, I really liked Charles Kuralt.I'm an avid flyfisher and I am spending the whole summer in Twin Bridges, Montana, not far from Charles and Pat's ranch, the Bluebird Wildlife Sanctuary. Needless to say, I was fascinated by this book. I do have some hesitation in recommending it wholeheartedly, however, to anyone not a Kuralt or Montana fan. Some of the details are rather sketchy, especially where the late 80s and early 90s are concerned. The story started out strong, kind of faded out and then came back strong after Charles died. All in all, I'm glad Pat Shannon wrote this book. Pick it up. I think you'll like it.
