Really good book about her life and that of William Hearst. Written many years ago but very informative and interesting.

What a fascinating book! I hated to put it down as every page had me interested. The names, the dates, the parties, the trips! Oh what a life they led. However, it was very obvious that Mr. Hearst was a jealous, possessive man who through trying to give her everything he thought she deserved was actually holding her back from her full potential. Marion Davies could have been a huge movie star as a commedienne, but instead everyone only remembers her as Mr. Hearst's mistress, if they know her name at all.
It was a fascinating look at the kind of life you could lead in the 20's and 30's with the right connections and a nealy unlimited amount of money.
