I will admit that I didn't know a lot about Josephine Baker. This book peaked my interest for that very reason. I found a lot to admire. This woman rose up from the bottom of society with no help from anyone but herself. I was fascinated by her time as a spy during WWII and her fight for equality throughout her lifetime. The author painted a brilliant picture of her and didn't shy away from the troublesome parts of Baker's life.
