"Belongs in a bygone age of romantic movies filled with dashing
heroes and honorable secrets." -- Wisconsin State Journal
"Considered to be a real life 'Holly Golightly' by the British. A
beautiful comedian everyone thought to be mad as a 'hatter.' The
book will tell you all about the woman and how she lived up to her
reputation." -- Rainbo Electronic Reviews
"Kendall has a presence that went far beyond her limited screen
oeuvre." -- Washington Post
"Kendall's life is filled with a sense of fun and mischief." --
Movie Review Index
"She was quite magic. Everywhere you went, people used to stop and
stare... she radiated." -- Roddy McDowell
"The first biography of this beautiful, ambitious woman. Golden's
writing style is concise and evenly paced, and she uses firsthand
information from the actress's family and friends. Although
American audiences may not be familiar with Kendall, this is an
enjoyable read." -- Library Journal
