A propos de cet article

[a nice clean copy, no discernible wear to the book; the jacket is slightly rubbed and lightly soiled along the front hinge, and has a tiny puncture wound near the upper left corner of the front panel, but still has a bright and fresh appearance; a nicer copy you are not likely to find]. (B&W photographs) A relatively early entry in the long-running "Films of" book series, which follows the formula -- biographical front material, followed by a chronological film-by-film rundown of the subject's career -- but is also an exemplary volume in the series. This is largely because it eschews the "filler" that too often clutters up these books -- i.e. perfunctory plot synopses accompanied by snippets/excerpts from contemporary reviews of each films -- instead presenting a concise (but well-researched and informative) account of each film's production, along with some intelligent critical commentary, where warranted. (Which means the authors don't waste any more space than necessary on dreck like MARU MARU and CROSSED SWORDS.) You might not think that it would have taken three authors to put something like this together, but these three gentlemen were longtime friends and collaborators -- and lifelong fans and admirers of Errol Flynn. Thomas, in fact, some years later became one of the most prominent writers to push back -- hard -- against the scurrilous portrait of Flynn presented by the Charles Higham in his book "Errol Flynn: The Untold Story." Thomas's 1990 book "Errol Flynn: The Spy Who Never Was" remains the definitive rebuttal to Higham's sensational but unfounded (even fabricated) accusations that Flynn had served as a Nazi spy before and during World War II. ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** (xx).…

Description de la boutique

Welcome to ReadInk (rhymes with "Dead Ink"), now in our 29th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. **** Although I occasionally lapse into the "royal we" voice, ReadInk is just me, from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing here is automated, and every order or inquiry gets my prompt, personal attention. **** In describing a book's physical condition, I employ standard book-grading terminology (Good/Very Good/Fine, with various in-between gradations as appropriate) and do my best to avoid both excessive jargon and overly-finicky detail. My goal is always to present a faithful impression of a book's condition and appearance; significant flaws are individually noted, or if too numerous are succinctly summarized. **** Books are more than just physical objects, however: they are also intellectual/information vessels, and in almost every case I also include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if it's only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. (This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this, especially in the case of older fiction, which is one of my specialties.) **** I take great care (and pride) in my packaging of books for shipment; I figure it's my responsibility to ensure that each book I send out will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach its new owner in the same condition as advertised. (A sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved.) **** That's all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. **** To view my inventory exclusively, head over to my website -- www.readinkbooks.com. ---- Howard Prouty, prop.…
