I absolutely loved this book and how it wove together the historical facts about the people that made up the Wizard of Oz. I loved that the book was told from the authors wife’s perspective and how the alternating timelines mesh together to show snippets of what happened in the past and how it was translated into the film in the future. I loved the film then and I love the film now. Seeing how that movie came to be was like peeking behind the wizards curtain.
