Coyne Steven Sanders and Tom Gilbert's book "DESILU The Story Of Lucille Ball And Desi Arnaz" is being reissued in an updated and expanded form.
Along with "Rainbows End" this has to be among the finest books written about television.
But maybe I am doing it a disservice by saying it is merely a book about television because it is so much more for than that.
DESILU is a wonderfully fast paced story filled with an insiders knowledge of the television industry. It is jam packed with historical facts mixed in with refreshing insights and behind the scenes gossip.
It is also the story of visionaries and pioneers, of love and passion and betrayal, and genius destroyed by vices.
Desilu is also a story of survival.
If you are a fan of I Love Lucy, television history, or heartbreaking love stories, this book is a must read.
The book will go on sale August 2 and is now available for pre-order at amazon,com and barnesandnoble.com
