This book was given to me as a bit of a joke-based on the Golden Girls episode where the book is mentioned. It turns out, as Dorothy says "it's a hell of a book". Told simply, with Southern spun wisdom and charm, it is a great little biography. It only covers the first 30 years of Vanna's life and career, but both are quite packed! I think what makes Vanna so interesting to people is that what you see is what you get. She seems unflappable and takes whatever comes her way (good or bad) and processes it and moves on-this comes from her upbringing. The book is quite a sweet look at a sweet woman with "good old fashioned" values-quite refreshing really even if the book is 39 years old!
