Review: about Betty Grable.
I loved all her movies as a kid. This book is really a valentine to her, and for my money, she deserves all the nice things ever said about her! If you are a Grable fan, you will love this book...wonderful pictures! You will also be outraged at the
way 20th treated its "golden blonde" later in her career.
But "Girl with the Million Dollar Legs" is a terrific Betty bio.

Summary: Great book!
Review: Betty Grable was the star whose pinup photograph was the most popular among World War Two servicemen. The vibrant blonde star also set a record that has never come close to being equaled in reigning as Hollywood's female box office champ for an incredible ten years. What made movie fans throughout the world love Betty Grable?Scottish author Tom McGee supplies the answer to that question in his entertaining biography of the popular film great. A personal friend of Grable's who had the opportunity to interview her at length on many occasions, McGee etches an enduring portrait of a wholesome, caring woman who always put warmth as a human being and loyalties to family and friends above star persona. Ego was never a problem with the popular superstar in an industry often overcome by it. When one sees such a warm and totally unaffected woman emerge in the pages of "The Girl With The Million Dollar Legs" it becomes obvious that people the world over loved Betty Grable because of the vibrance, warmth, and sweetness they saw in her. McGee's book is also rich in photographs capturing Grable and the luminous era in which she starred. There is also a warmly affecting Foreword by fellow Twentieth Century Fox blonde glamour girl, Alice Faye. Grable and Faye became great friends with no animosity or jealousy ever emerging. This book is a must for Grable fans and all those who love the exciting cinema era of the forties and fifties. It is so refreshing to read a movie biography devoid of trashy gossip and petty commentary.

Summary: Best Book On Betty Ever
Review: I don't know what that person from June wrote was talking about. Tom McGee's book on the wonderful Betty Grable was both touching and factful. You could tell just by reading the book that he really loved Betty and was, well, still is her greatest fan and friend. It is a treat for all Betty Grable fans, like me, to read this book by someone who actually knew her than by someone who didn't. The pictures are wonderful to look at it, especially the pictures of her when she was a child. Wonderful book and I would recommend it to anyone who is a Betty fan and to those who need to become one! Thank you Mr. McGee for writing such a wonderful book.

Summary: Meet the real Betty Grable!!!! What a star really is!
Review: If you are a Betty Grable fan this is the book you want. It is written by Tom McGee who knew her and used her words to write it. Not only does it have her film history and fantastic photos of her, but it shows Betty Grable as she was when the cameras weren't rolling. In this age of stars with huge egos and terrible personalities it is great to find out Betty was such a wonderful person who loved life and those around her. A true star, a great actress and a wonderful woman who many people obbviously loved for more than her legs. She, like all of us had her faults and problems. But, she overcame them as only a person with her kind and wonderful personality could. With grace and dignity, which is a novelty in this day and age. Million dollar legs, with a Billion dollar personality. Great job Tom McGee!!! Thank you for sharing the real Betty Grable with us. Sure beats the heck outta those sloppy hearsay dirt-digging books we see about her. Want the truth about Betty as a person, this is the book for you!
