Book Reviews of Timmy's in the Well: The Jon Provost Story (100s Visual)
Book Review: "Timmy's In The Well" documents a remarkable journey!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am slightly bleery-eyed and a bit cranky this morning because I made the mistake of beginning to read Jon Provost's autobiography co-written with his authoress wife Laurie Jacobson, "Timmy's In The Well". I started reading this book an hour before bedtime but just couldn't put it down! I kept saying to myself just another two pages and lights out, but that cost me another hour of sleep on a work night!
From page one these two writers had my attention with a child's wide-eyed look at the waning days of Hollywood's golden age in the early 1950's. Jon Provost shows enormous respect and admiration for the many people he worked with over the decades, and even provides hundreds of photos underlining all the major events in his life and his show business career. He is never negative but always tells the truth for the discerning reader between the lines.
Laurie Jacobson has always been a compelling writer of Hollywood's many past scandals and hauntings, but here she takes Jon Provost's own words and pulls the reader directly into the story.
This book is much more than you will expect and be prepared to sacrifice your sleep finishing it! It's quite a journey.
