Book Reviews of John Wayne: My Father

Book Review: A Sincere Reflection
Summary: 5 Stars

Although Steve Delsohn's writing reads more like a 3rd draft and he doesn't seem to find his rhythm until half way through the book, I think Aissa's voice still effectively comes through quite well.

This is not a book for those who "lived near back lots" and only want sun-baked warrior/actor stories about the 'image' they know from the screen.

This book is an amazingly honest and intimate narrative seen through Aissa's eyes and feelings. She takes great care not to denigrate or hurt anyone except herself. I suppose after reading this book and all the intimate emotions she shares, I would now have to add one more accolade to Aissa's character, and that would be "Courageous".
