This bbok was published several years ago and I made the mistake of buying several copies to give to friends. Needless to say, I believe MM DID NOT write a single word of this drivel. Just rotten. Don't waste your time or money. I have collected and even met Monroe as a child of five in an elevator in NYC. That was in 1955. My collection amasses over 7000 pieces including over 45 books, this is amongst the worst.Folks this ain't the REAL thang!
