Great Buy
27. November 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
Richard Gruden's heartwarming tale of Bing Crosby's life story is one that will remain in my personal library of well-written biographies for a long time. From birth to death, Bing Crosby's life is passionately displayed through words and pictures alike. Crosby fans and those new to his world of musical talent will instantly be entranced by the smooth flow of the story. Finally! A biography about one of the world's most influential musicians that doesn't read like a textbook but rather like a tale that makes me want to read it again and again!
I applaud Grudens for a job well done. "Bing Crosby--Crooner of the Century" will surely be a favorite of those who know Bing Crosby and wish to know more. The story comes with my highest recommendation.

Grudens, Bing Crosby:Crooner of the Century
9. Mai 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Richard Grudens, who has created a one-man industry of creating gushing celebrity "biographies," strikes again with this volume on Bing Crosby. Anyone looking for an in-depth, studied review of the singer's life should look elsewhere.
