THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER Like Fire & Fury, the gossipy real-life soap opera behind a serious show. When Barbara Walters launched The View, network executives told her that hosting it would tarnish her reputation. Instead, within ten years, she’d revolutionized morning TV and made household names of her co-hosts: Joy Behar, Star Jones, Meredith Vieira and Elisabeth Hasselbeck. But the daily chatfest didn’t just comment on the news. It became the news. And the headlines barely scratched the surface. Based on unprecedented access, including stunning interviews with nearly every host, award-winning journalist Ramin Setoodeh takes you backstage where the stars really spoke their minds. Here's the full story of how Star, then Rosie, then Whoopi tried to take over the show, while Barbara struggled to maintain control of it all, a modern-day Lear with her media-savvy daughters. You'll read about how so many co-hosts had a tough time fitting in, suffered humiliations at the table, then pushed themselves away, feeling betrayed—one nearly quitting during a commercial. Meanwhile, the director was being driven insane, especially by Rosie. Setoodeh uncovers the truth about Star’s weight loss and wedding madness. Rosie’s feud with Trump. Whoopi’s toxic relationship with Rosie. Barbara’s difficulty stepping away. Plus, all the unseen hugs, snubs, tears—and one dead rodent. Ladies Who Punch shows why The View can be mimicked and mocked, but it can never be matched.

Born in 1878 to an East End London docker’s family, Rosie finds herself a mysterious benefactor, who pays for both her and her sister to be privately educated. While undoubtedly talented in the school room, Rosie longs to take to the stage at the Britannia Theatre in Shoreditch, London. As a beautiful, intelligent and talented actress she is popular with the Britannia theatre crowd and, thanks again to her benefactor, is offered a part at the Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. In 1900 Rosie accompanies the cast of ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ to Paris. The excitement of the world fair, the Exposition Universelle, and the summer Olympics are surpassed when Rosie meets Frederick, the son of a rich Swiss Merchant Banker. A whirlwind courtship leads to a grand wedding in Westminster Abbey. As her life changes from actress to society lady, she mixes with Lords and Ladies, Princes and Kings. Flirting with the early feminist movement, Rosie’s life unfolds with relentless excitement as she works for the early forerunner of the British Secret Service. Rosie is a woman of the twentieth century. A charming and likeable heroine, she will appeal to readers looking for a heartwarming rags to riches saga.
