5.0 out of 5 stars Scotland's lost daughter., 29 Sep 1998
By A Customer
Lorna Moon's accomplishments are mostly unknown in Scotland until now.Richard DeMille has restored the knowledge of her literary talents, and his account of her life is haunting and poignant.Lorna was a child of her race,strong, resilient,tough,but tempered with Celtic melancholy and sweetness.She leapt from obscurity to the highest pinnacle in Hollywood capturing along the way the attention of the DeMille brothers. The Author has distilled the essence of Lorna Moon from a distant memory to a living presence that dominates the book from begining to end. The mixture of early Hollywood,family secrets,and scottish roots will absorb and delight all readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating, poetic story of one man's search for his past, 15 Sep 1998
By A Customer
Who was Lorna Moon? And why did she abandon him? These are just a few of the questions Cecil B. de Mille's son Richard explores in the most absorbing biography of the year. His quest takes him from Hollywood to Canada and a small village in Scotland, and nets him a sister, a brother, cousins galore, and family secrets some didn't want revealed. It is both lyrical and tragic and his father and uncle would have been proud.
