2022 Reprint of the 1955 Edition. Facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Illustrated with Photographs. Burns and Allen, who endeared themselves to American television audiences for decades, were one of the great husband and wife teams in all show business. When people ask George how he could live with such a zany character as Gracie, who puts salt in the pepper-pot and pepper in the, salt- shaker, shortens electric cords to save electricity, etc., he replies quite simply "I love her, that's why ! " And in telling the story of their thirty years together, a genuinely funny yet very touching story, George has virtually written a love letter to Gracie.
This is a warm, laughing, moving experience for everyone who reads it; the story of an Eastside youngster with show business in his blood who one day found a partner for his act and a mate for life, and thereafter never looked back.
