Renegades, Showmen & Angels: A Theatrical History of Fort Worth, 1873-2001
This is a wonderful autobiography by a woman who knows how to savor life. It explores her background from the days when she sought to become a professional ballerina, her beginnings in film, her journey into exotic lands that expanded her compassion for her fellow humans, and ultimately led to a spiritual transformation reflected in her later books.
As the author of a spiritually-themed novel, I am always on the outlook for books that provide food for the soul. This one did it for me and it shall for you as well. You too can discover that you can have an amazing life. I have begun to experience a life beyond my wildest dreams. Shirley's books opened me to that possibility.
Davis Aujourd'hui, author of "The Misadventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude"
