Very revealing book.  This woman was from a wealthy family and suffered the shunning that came from leaving the Muslim faith when she met Jesus.

Anyone wanting to know more about Condoleezza Rich must read this book. It's a book about Condoleezza Rice's childhood years in 50's and 60's Birmingham, AL and the significant influence her mother and father played during her growing up years leading up to undergraduate and graduate studies. This is a must-read book about our former Secretary of State.

Very good book! I had the pleasure of knowing Nikkie during her younger years, and she kept a very dark secret. But by the Grace of God she is through it and doing exceptionally well!

This was an very interesting book about a very smart lady who managed to navigate the English court and continually add to her assets.
She married for many reasons -- money, love, power and position.  Somehow she was able to survive and live a long and prosperous life in a world dominated by strong men.  She would have made quite the CEO in today's world.

I can't imagine anyone with pretty much unlimited wealth living their life the way this woman did.  It's a very well written book, and a fascinating story.

I did learn a lot about this talented woman. I knew very little before reading this, I just knew she was a writer/ poet. Very informative book.

Very revealing. Of course, a number of volumes could be written about the shenanigans of Bill AND Hillary. For details on Iran-Contra I recommend the book: COMPROMISED: Clinton, Bush, and the CIA.

It is not news that the infamous J. Edgar Hoover was acloset queen but the almost overwhelming wealth of juicy info about legions of the famous from the Hoover era makes this book one I just could not put down. Politicians, movies stars, socialites are all shown with every bit of dirty linen exposed - some of it really shocking stuff. Darwin Porter clearly knows everything about everybody and has told all in this book.

This story of the life of Hugette Clark, one of the richest heiresses in AM. history, is a sad tale of the ultimate "little rich girl".  More readable than other histories of the Clarks, this book illuminates a family of whom many Americans have no knowledge.  From a coveted & protected early life to an aged recluse, Hugette Clark's life is a story where the truth is stranger than fiction.  The details of the  success of her self-made father, are remarkable alone.  The reader will likely learn pieces of American history such how Clark County, NV got its name.  I highly recommend this book for any history lover.

Very interesting and educational book.  I believe that this is a true story of how the Clinton's acquired their wealth. Very disturbing how they did it and how corrupt they and their foundation is.

Couldn't put it down. Enjoyed that she revealed a very real person. A lot of self disclosure, thank you for being so honest.

More people should know who this woman is, and should read her story. Some day, when I'm rich and famous, I want to adapt this book into a movie.

Very insightful and well written book, as it should be when your father was Richard Simon.  Ye, she reveals the inspiration behind "You're So Vain" and other hit songs.  An interesting life, an interesting lady, and well-worth the read.

Fascinating tale about a woman born of great wealth and crafting a life she chose to live...one that many of us would most likely not select. The authors do a credible job of piecing her story together based on her notes, letters, bank statements, newspaper articles etc. that describe where her fortune came from and what she decided to do with her money. The unanswered question is why she did what she did. Why maintain several multi-million dollar estate homes for 40-50 years and never live in them? This is only one of her missions whose rationale remains a mystery. Whatever we may think about her behavior, there is never any indication from those who knew her, her medical records or her notes that she was mentally incompetent, suffering from depression or dementia, or unhappy. To the contrary, she was always described as pleasant, engaged, upbeat and happy...intriguing.
