Grace Kelly by James Spada
Oh Grace, we hardly knew you, wrote The Chicago Tribune about this book. Spada presents us with a living, breathing Grace Kelly whose real life surpassed every male fantasy. A compassionate, well-balanced account, wrote Variety. A fine biography of a complicated woman. Fascinating, wrote London Today. A cast of characters far richer than anything Jackie Collins or Judith Krantz could dream up.Grace Kelly was the incredibly beautiful, talented and elegant American movie star who became a real-life princess. In six short Hollywood years she starred in eleven films, eight of which are revered movie classics (like Dial M for Murder, Rear Window and It Takes a Thief). She won the Oscar for Best Actress for her performance in The Country Girl and also won the amorous attentions of legendary movie stars Gary Cooper, Bing Crosby, William Holden and Ray Milland. At the age of 26, she married the dashing Prince Ranier I and became Her Serene Highness The Princess of Monaco, an international figure whose generosity and kindness became synonymous with her name.
