Everything went smoothly, I'm very happy with my purchase. The book was listed in "Good" condition but I think it is in "Very good" condition - I suppose better to underestimate than the opposite! ++++

A great gift idea
Bought this for my wife who began reading the book while visiting her sister in the hospital. She couldn't put it down. Since it was the hospital's copy she could not take it with her. She told me about her enjoy- ment. With a birthday coming soon I thought to myself what a wonderful idea for a gift. Thus began my journey to find this book.

Katharine's Diary HARDCOVER 1987
There was never any actress to equal Katharine Hepburn. I have seen all her movies and continue to watch them over and over. This book was a diary she kept while in Africa during the filming of the "African Queen." Her observations are astute, funny and heartfelt. She didn't spare her companions in telling what she saw or heard. A funny memory was when she saw what the bathroom conditions were like. They consisted of twin outhouses for the Bogarts and Hepburn who was appalled by the thought that even though she had to work closely with Bogey, she didn't want to share an adjoining toilet seat! Outside of dishing the dirt on her companions, in a good natured way, she also describes the conditions in which they all live for the time of the movie. I quote...."My bedroom is charming. I ... There was never any actress to equal Katharine Hepburn. I have seen all her movies and continue to watch them over and over. This book was a diary she kept while in Africa during the filming of the "African Queen." Her observations are astute, funny and heartfelt.

They consisted of twin outhouses for the Bogarts and Hepburn who was appalled by the thought that even though she had to work closely with Bogey, she didn't want to share an adjoining toilet seat! Outside of dishing the dirt on her companions, in a good natured way, she also describes the conditions in which they all live for the time of the movie. I quote...."My bedroom is charming. I sleep under a net. Hard bed. Straw pillow. Cement floors painted red that come off on the soles of your shoes and feet. My clothes are always damp. And the towels smell like a baby's diapers and the cigarettes are hard to draw and soft. Your shoes and leather baggage are in no time covered with mold. Scissors rust. It's damp." Her thoughts of the African people, the country, the actors & company are all in this book. The pictures are marvelous. So candid....just like Hepburn.

The Making of The African Queen
After watching the film I was interested in knowing more. KH gives an interesting glimpse into the goings on before and during the filming. It adds a lot to the story.

Learn the fascinating behind the scenes look at the making of a fabulous film.
Interesting background on the stars and director of the film. Well worth the price. Not a big fan of Hepburn but did enjoy the book.
