Dick Van Dyke reads his own memoir, detailing his rocky road up the ranks in show business, his bad luck with automobiles, and the lucky break that led to The Dick Vank Dyke Show and Mary Poppins. He reveals some personal details about the first half of his life with wife, Margie, who never really liked the Hollywood lifestyle and the second half of his life with Michelle, who did. Though he battled alcoholism and smoking and cheated on his wife, he comes off as a fairly decent chap. Some lessons learned are repetitive and he includes names of lots of actors and writers who may or may not be familiar to the reader. Overall, an interesting memoir, though probably more enjoyable when told in Dick's voice than when read.
