Marilyn Monroe was a movie legend,starring in films such as 'Some Like it Hot', 'The Seven Year Itch',and in later years,'The Misfits',with Clark Gable.In 1962,this beautiful star died at the age of 36,legend has it from suicide. In this exceptional,surprising book,Keith Badman has taken the role of forensic detective to uncover long lost or previously unseen personal records,exclusive interviews and eyewitness accounts that reveal the details of Marilyn Monroe's last days.After five years of research,Badman reveals precisely how she died and the cover-up that ensued,strategic delays on the night of her overdose,the name of her real father,her rumoured remarriage to Joe Di Maggio,and ends forever the debates about her involvement with John and Bobby Kennedy.He exposes the reality about her final (unfinished) movie, 'Something's Got to Give', the night she sang for JFK and the details of her final week alive.Keith Badman uncovers the truth and reveals Marilyn as never seen before.After years of wild and unfounded speculation,this really is the last word on the actress's final years. Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering it's prices, weight allowances,dimensions and lowered it's qualifying compensation rates too!
