...this page, but I really don't think it tells you much about how good they really are. Perhaps this will help, however: Herb Ellis, say Sandy's p.r. men, is known as "Mr. Night Time T.V." having worked with Steve Allen, Danny Kaye, Joey Bishop, and now Merv Griffen.

...fact, the only publication which has not received it seriously is my old alma mater, Newsweek," Karl says a little huffily. The Newsweek review, which did not mention Fleming's former connection with the magazine, called the book "about as interesting--and titillating--as a protracted Merv Griffin show: 319 pages that manage to take most of the joy out of voyeurism...
