Dean & Me (A Love Story) - Jerry Lewis

deanandme

Has anybody here ever read this book? If so, what are your thoughts about it? I've read a couple of biographies about Dean Martin, but I've never read this one. I definitely need to get my hands on a copy.

P.S. Tomorrow is Good Friday, so I'm taking off from the blog. I'll be back on Monday. I hope that you all have a great Easter weekend.

    Hi Keith, I also had never heard of this book but it is now on my reading list because it gets terrific reviews on Amazon and B&N! Thanks for pointing this one out for us, mate! Have a sunny Eastern!

    Have good break Keith - I'm off for a bit myself next week, but have got a few nuggets tucked away before I go...

    Some Tom Jones treats, a new Spring Collection and an exclusive unreleased track from Marco Pirroni's new band..

    Hey Phoebe. I don't know why I've never gotten my hands on a copy. Money issues is probably one big reason. I do wanna read it though.

    This is my favorite of all the Dean books I have read. Jerry is very honest about their lives together and it gives really great insight to their duo years. I really think any Dean fan should read this one.

    I read it and liked it.

    Peter Bogdanovich's "Who The Hell's In It" also has a long chapter on Lewis and a shorter (but telling and funny) one on Martin.
