Summary: Wow...
Review: Although I have read many books on Liz, and know quite a bit about this lovely woman, this book gave me a renewed feeling about her. Thank you Ms. Branin, for reminding me why I so admire Elizabeth Taylor. For anyone interested in learning about this actress, this is a great place to start.

Summary: The best book I have ever read on Elizabeth Taylor!!
Review: I absolutely fell in love with this book!
Larissa Branin is a wonderful biographer of a wonderful actress. Many books I have read on Elizabeth Taylor are too judgemental, and really were just written so that the author could state what was on their minds, and not to portray the actress. Also, they either gush over Elizabeth pathetically, or viciously attack her. But Branin, simply takes us through
Elizabeths life,letting us make our own opinions. Some books have either too many pictures or too many small, insignifigent details, but this book was perfect, and I was sad when it was over. An honest portrait of The Queen.
A beautiful Biography!!!

Summary: Beauty from within
Review: This book is well done, and a loving tribute to Elizabeth Taylor. The only disappointing factor was that many of the photgraphs were ones frequently seen. It would be nice to see those rare photos of Miss Taylor, and more candids! I also found the book interesting in the fact that as Elizabeth has gotten older,her inner beauty shines through even stronger. Just look at those eyes - they tell volumes!

Summary: Nice pictures, but lacking in content
Review: This book is, indeed, what its title claims it to be: pictorial. The pictures are good, so if you want to feast your eyes on the lovely Elizabeth Taylor, buy away. But if you're craving more textual content on the fascinating life of Liz, look elsewhere. The text was pretty wooden.....which is amazing, given the excitement of Liz's life.

Review: This book is, indeed, what its title claims it to be: pictorial. The pictures are great, so if your main goal is to feast your eyes on the lovely Elizabeth Taylor, buy away. If you're craving more textual content on the fascinating life of Liz, however, look elsewhere. I found the text to be rather vapid and wooden.....which is pretty amazing, given Liz's exciting life.

Summary: Beautiful tribute to Elizabeth Taylor
Review: Thoughtfully and fairly written...gorgeous color and black and white photos of Elizabeth. She is depicted not only as the glamorous movie queen but, as the child star, mother, and AIDs activist.
