Apart from the superb photos of MM, this work also includes one of Marilyn's latter-day interviews, plus a summary of her biography.

Hands down one of the best collection of photos Marilyn Monroe compiled. If you see this in a used book store buy it! Another Marilyn book that is so beautifully sad I can only bear to look at it occasionally.
