David Niven – the facts behind the façade
‘If you want to know about my father’s life you won’t find it in his autobiographies. They’re all about other people’ David Niven Jnr
David Niven – actor, author, ultimate English gentleman is a legend – a legend of carefree elegance, of timeless charm, of Hollywood’s glittering silver screen.
Yet legends often hide the truth.
‘An excellently researched analysis … Head and shoulders above the average showbiz biography … He understands many of Niven’s deeper feelings’ John Mortimer, Sunday Times
‘A well-told story … giving us the darker side as well as the mask of a complex and perhaps desperate character. He was a life-enhancer off-screen as well as on’ J W Lambert, The Times
‘Shrewd and pleasing; shows how dark Niven’s moon could be’ Alexander Walker, Standard
Paperback, 399 pages. In very good preloved condition with the exception of slight fading to spine and two minor creases to the top right and bottom right corners of cover.
