Summary: Outstanding perspective on how JV became the man he is.
Impressions of Jacques from key people involved in his life at every stage, from Canada through Italy, Monaco, Japan and the US. The unfortunate absence of input from JV serves to provide a reasonably objective account. Collings does not fawn over the young hero, but lets those who knew him at important points paint a rich background scene for the recent portrait we know so well.
Summary: Interesting, but seems to be one of those un-authorized Bios
The book dives into history and give you a lot of details about Jacques, his father and his travels through life. A lot of the information is from other sources and it appears Jacques himself wasn't interested in being involved with the book. Each person contributing, of course, has their own ideas of Jacques, but if you can sift through all of that it is a great book. It really gives you a perspective of how somebody like Jacques, young and with a famous last name can break into the bigtime. Jeff Mulvihill, Jr.
