Review
"A beautiful, truthful and important biography of one of the seminal figures in the flowering of American and worldwide dramatic literature." - Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee, authors of the classic drama Inherit the Wind; "The figure Sheehy evokes is part rattlesnake, part cow-girl, part southern lady. Sheehy lets us see the wildness in Jones for the spark it gave to others as well as for the destruction it wreaked on her." - American Theatre"
