RaveThe New York Times Book Review...nothing that has been printed about Mrs. Graham is as compelling as the story she herself tells in Personal History, her riveting, moving autobiography ... Am I making clear how extraordinary this book is? Kay Graham has lived in a world so circumscribed that her candor and forthrightness are all the more affecting. Her manners never desert her: she is even able to speak generously of the woman her husband ran off with ... She manages to rewrite the story of her life in such a way that no one will ever be able to boil it down to a sentence, but I\'ll give it a try: Katharine Graham turns out to have had not two lives but four, and the story of her journey from daughter to wife to widow to woman parallels to a surprising degree the history of women in this century. It\'s also a wonderful book.
