Bought for my 80yr old father he could not put it down he said it contained things he never new he loved it

If you grew up on the Duke you'll enjoy this insight. A pleasant insight by his family, and easy to start at any point time and again.If you watched the Alamo as a youngster umpteen times, and all his other Classics, you will enjoy this !

Bought for a Christmas gift so not read yet by recipient looked good though

It's a Christmas present so have only had a quick flick through, before it was taken from me to be wrapped. Am looking forward to opening it up on the big day.

Well received gift

Great buy

Loved reading about John Wayne

Hubby was eyeing this book for a while and was glad he received it for Christmas. Great book.

Well, its a must for any JW fan, the book is a quick read, but very interesting for a JW fan.

Good reminiscence of The Duke, easy and quick read. Always nice to hear more about the JW from those who knew him personally.
