Informative
I am the biggest Monroe fan and found this to be one of the best in my collection, it gives an in depth review of all of her films and hundreds of quotes from co-workers, friends and fans. It has an uncountable number of pictures and a biography too. It is easy to read and a must for any Marilyn fan.
