Read in June, 1985

How could such a unique story be told from any better viewpoint than their own? I call it required reading for anyone interested in their story, if you're able to find a copy to read. I personally have hung on to the used copy I found back in 1985. I hope someday someone writes another comprehensive biography of the Dionnes, especially as this book leaves off in 1964. There was more to their story than was written of then, as well as the tumultuous lives they lived afterwards.

Iamshadow You know the (then) three surviving Dionnes wrote their own autobiography in the late nineties, right? It's called Family Secrets. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28...
