Biography or Ghost Story?

Wow, in the very first chapter of this book, you feel like you are viewing an episode of Night Gallery. May Mann states Jayne returned from the dead and wanted her best friend May to finish her book because of false stories about Jayne. Blood covers the draft of the book. One questions May's state of mind, when she starts talking about her cat. However, book keeps you entertain with the stories of Jayne's involvement with Anton Lavey, head Satinist. Also, it tells in detail about Jayne's last days, including the car wrecks with Jayne's last lover Sam Brody and the mauling at the zoo of Jayne's son Zoltan. Book keeps you entertain but it is up to you to believe its contents or not. There are many great rare photos of Jayne. I personally enjoy it but treat it like a work of fiction mixed with facts. Recommend this to readers.

Jayne Mansfield

This book is a fun read. The author, a close friend of Jayne's, sometimes seems to bend the truth a little. This is a book Jayne would have been proud of. Fact and Fiction are confused and her legendary image is preserved. I thouroughly enjoyed it as an homage to a great Love Goddess and a great entertainer. I recommend reading it if only for the playful voyages into the supernatural. There is a nice section of photos and this book will keep you interest piqued.
