If you've read any of her biographies, or her autobiography, there isn't much new here. But that isn't really the point of the book anyway. The biography is more like a skeleton around which the body of the book, the many photographs, is assembled. If you happen to only know Ball from one portion of her life this is an excellent introduction to the complete human being.
While the controversies and troubles are mentioned, there is no sensationalism, everything is in service to presenting the arc of her life along with a photographic record of that life. Even if you've read some of the biographies and have been a fan since the early 60s (like me) you will still be surprised when a picture or a description reminds you of something you might have forgotten.
A number of books, this one included, have begun including pouches with removable replicas of memorabilia, which makes a physical copy of the book that much more essential for big fans.
In addition to readers who are fans, this is also a fun book for anyone with an interest in the movie industry during the time of the studio system or those interested in the early years of television.
