Customer Reviews
Badly Written though very informative.
I really, really wanted to like this book, though I was very disapointed. If your a BC fan buy this book, it's full of information. If your expecting the warmth & humour that Billy exudes, forget it, it simply isn't here. Pamela Stephenson may now be educated, but she simply cannot write a book, its ultra simplistic in some places & ultra complex in others (in my opinion topsy tervy). I have no doubt you will find the terrible translations of Stottish slang, both nonsensicle & totaly insulting to the readers intellect.
The secret to this book is : Pick out the info & try your best not to get irritated by the author.
One day maybe Billy will write his own story & warm the world, the way he does on stage.
