Filled with wonderful stories and marvelous anecdotes from his long career, and fabulous pictures (many never published before). Written by himself, he relates his life from his early childhood to being the mega-star of Las Vegas.
My Grandpa Nelson (mom's dad) best friend was George Liberace, Liberace's brother. We were close to "Uncle George". So, I worked some summers at the Liberace museum because George, and his wife, Dora ran the museum. The Liberace's hold a special place in my heart.
I was given this to read before I started work there.
I met Liberace at a gas station in Blue Jay Calif. where he was getting chains on his car and I was walking to work. He was very friendly and spoke to me. After I became 21 my parents took me to a concert of his in Las Vegas. What an entertainer, best show I ever went to. This book is chock full of anecdotes and his humor. When I lived in Palm Springs my hubby worked on his cars and we saw him often. He was a one of a kind person which you will find in this book.
Sometimes this was just fun and gossipy, sometimes unintentionally hilarious, and occasionally surreal--as when he nearly killed himself in a dry cleaning accident the day Kennedy was killed. For people who love Liberace, this book is a must.
