OK, is it the best biography ever? Probably not, but it's the best one that will ever be written about this interesting woman, and it gets the job done, adding good notes, references, and an index, plus interesting photos. I believe Alexander and Harris were successful in what they were trying to do, that is, to write a biography about an interesting albeit minor character. Had they been trying to write a biography of a major cultural icon, then I think harsher criticism would be warranted. But really, who can resist someone with a name like Clementine Paddleford? I appreciate the fact that this biog is available.
