Well written and researched biography

I was not a fan of Heston or his movies but I like film star biographies and this one is well done and fairly engrossing. I have to admit when the book reaches the early 70s when Heston begins his involvement in politics and the NRA, I started skimming. These sections are detailed and long drawn out but some may find them interesting. Interviews with family members, friends and those close to Heston are quoted at length. The book captures who the man was and what made him tick.
