Published in 1980 by Simon & Schuster, this is the SECOND PRINTING (number line ends in 2). Overall in VERY GOOD CONDITION. Light edge wear along dust jacket edges with a few tiny chips and/or tears, clean and now handsomely portrayed in a mylar jacket. Beige boards, a little bit of age-toning seen. A few very light foxing marks on page edges, none on pages. No interior marks except for NICE INSCRIPTION AND SIGNATURE OF BETTE MIDLER ON FIRST FREE ENDPAPER. The autograph has not been authenticated but is consistent with others easily found online.
"With her brassy voice and bold performances making the world finally pay attention, she needs no introduction. Grammy award–winning singer, Academy Award–nominee, Broadway star of her critically acclaimed one-woman show and beloved actress in The Rose, Beaches and Down and Out in Beverly Hills—Bette Midler is a household name whose career and fans span generations.
In A View from a Broad, originally published in 1980, Bette relives her career through memories of endless rehearsals, her fear of flying, crazy schedules and wisdom she learned from Thai Gondoliers, with the trademark razor-blade wit that her fans have grown to know, love and expect.
Filled with photographs, a new introduction and heartwarming stories that highlight only a portion of a brilliant career, A View from a Broad is the perfect gift for anyone who loves music, theater or just plain fun—and will be cherished by the fans of Divine Miss M for years to come."
