Maureen O'Hara was born for Technicolour. Her fiery red hair and piercing green eyes made the screen crackle with electricity. Her bold Irish bearing cast her as the prototypical strong, determined woman struggling in a man's world. During a career that has spanned some sixty years, she has earned a reputation as a fiercely independent thinker, a tireless champion of causes, and, of course, a premier actress. 'TIS HERSELF chronicles a standout career that includes such timeless British and Hollywood films as THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY, RIO GRANDE, OUR MAN IN HAVANA, MCLINTOCK! and THE PARENT TRAP. O'Hara also shines a light on her private life, including her romance with aviation pioneer Brigadier General Charles F. Blair, 'the great love of her life', who died in a mysterious plane crash ten year after their marriage. Going behind the scenes and delivering intimate memories about her co-stars and directors, including John Wayne, Alfred Hitchcock, John Ford, Tyrone Power, John Candy, James Stewart, Charles Laughton, Lucille Ball and Rex Harrison, O'Hara's first-person reminiscences afford readers an unprecedented view of Hollywood's 'Golden Age'.

Recensione:
'A delightful anecdotal autobiography . . . Hollywood's heyday returns to life in this revealing, insightful memoir. O'Hara treats readers like close friends, and her powerful personality is evident throughout' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"This is an essential book for anyone interested in the golden age of Hollywood"
Mail on Sunday 29/8
'A straight-shooting insider's journal of survival from a woman who, from the age of 18, was a star in Hollywood's shining but merciless kingdom'
Independent on Sunday, 26/9
'Lively and very entertaining'
Irish Independent, 3/4
'A wonderfully candid behind-the-scenes memoir . . . As well as chronicling a career that has spanned some 60 years, Maureen O'Hara shines a light on her private life' PRIZES GALORE
'A major Hollywood player' THE STAGE
'Write a history of Hollywood leading ladies and you will strugle to categorise Maurren O'Hara. Never mind her jaw-dropping beauty, she was too sparky to make a passive cutie yet lacked the hint of danger needed by a proper femme fatale . . . There remains the thought that her dramatic potential was never truly tested - and the thought is shared in her overdue memoirs, a characterful read . . . The tone of this book matches O'Hara's screen persona. It is uncomplicated, occasionally wistful and frequently combative' NOTTINGHAM EVENING POST
'Maureen O'Hara is a marvellous living link to the "Golden Age" of Hollywood . . . Wonderfully candid' SUNDAY EXPRESS
'O'Hara writes warmly and her refreshingly gush-free book is engagingly honest -- not least about her more foolish choices, such as her first two marriages' Philip Kemp, TOTAL FILM
