I loved this book so much! Listening to it in Harvey’s inimitable rasp was a cherry on top. What a career this man has had and what an example of someone who has seen the social conscience change and adapt and moved right along with it. I found a lot of kinship with Harvey’s descriptions of his childhood and it sat quite close with my own I think. I finished this feeling inspired and dying to make something of my own. Harvey’s showbiz encounters and stories are delectable too!
