Bette and Joan: The Divine Feud


The first and only detailed account of the bitter feud
between Hollywood’s quintessential movie star--
Joan Crawford--and its leading dramatic actress--
Bette Davis. Akin to the historic enmity between
Elizabeth the First and Mary Queen of Scots,
the Davis-Crawford rivalry spanned three decades,
ultimately revealing a story monstrous, tragic,
hilarious and affecting.
