Synopsis

This in-depth look at the life of John Wayne differs from most other biographies available because the author has actually met and worked with the legend. He has also interviewed Wayne's friends and colleagues (including Lee Marvin, Kirk Douglas, Yakima Cannutt, Robert Mitchum, Lauren Bacall, Henry Hathaway, Don Siegel and John Huston). To the people of America John Wayne was more than just an actor; he became a symbol of all that America should stand for. Michael Munn reveals how Wayne's beliefs nearly led to his assassination by Communists - three times. Since September 11th, Wayne has become very relevant again, as Americans have rediscovered his particular brand of patriotism. John Wayne: The Man and Myth a.lso includes an extensive filmography and is essential reading for all fans of the Duke.
