Articles, Documentaries and Interviews
It would be virtually impossible for me to list each and every newspaper, magazine and Internet article about Marilyn Monroe, her life and her death, that I have read or reviewed during the past seven years. Those that I have directly quoted are credited within the body of the text in footnotes. The same is true for the countless fragments of documentaries that I have watched, each of which purported to reveal the truth about Marilyn’s life and death, along with the fragments of interviews featuring various persons who knew Marilyn, or allegedly knew her, with stories to tell. Where necessary due to their importance, I credited the documentary, the interviewed and the inter-viewer, when I could determine that information, within the body of the text. Information from the following major documentaries, however, appeared regularly throughout the preceding text.

eBook Citations
The method prescribed for citing references to and quotations from eBooks by those and they who formulate such rules seems unnecessarily complex and tedious. Therefore I have taken a much less complex and tedious approach. Within this text, I parenthetically cite eBooks by an abbreviation KE, Kindle Edition, followed by a chapter number. For example, (KE:8) signifies a reference to or a quotation from an eBook which can be found in chapter 8. If my simplified method causes some rule makers heartburn, I recommend Tums.
