Reviews
"Jensen's book is a testament to the fickleness of the entertainment world."
-Tampa Bay Tribune
"It is an affecting story, gently and honestly told without frills, without sensation. In Jensen's hands, the twins are always human, individuals, never freaks joined at the hips as the world saw them after their birth in 1908. . . Here, their story is pure."
-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
