Hardback. Etat : Very Good. He helped many. He even saved the Gerrer Rebbe's life. But he never called on President Roosevelt to do more to save European Jewry from the Nazis.Sol Bloom, a colorful character who introduced the Ferris Wheel to the world, chaired the Foreign Affairs Committee in the House of Representatives during World War II. He steered both Cash-and-Carry and Lend-Lease through Congress. Rescue activists, however, didn't always find a friend in him. Why? Bloom's own words in a 1939 letter perhaps answer this question best: "My duty as I see it comes first as an American. All else whatever it may be is secondary."To read about Bloom's life is to grapple with the question of the proper role of minorities in America as well as the question that haunts so many 75 years after the Holocaust: Should America have done more.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Steve McQueen is one of America's legendary movie stars best known for his hugely successful film career in classics such as The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, The Thomas Crown Affair, Bullitt, and The Towering Inferno as well as for his turbulent life off-screen and impeccable style. His unforgettable physical beauty, his soft-spoken manner, his tough but tender roughness, and his aching vulnerability had women swooning and men wanting to be just like him. Today--nearly thirty years after he lost his battle against cancer at the age of fifty--McQueen remains "The King of Cool." Yet, few know the truth of what bubbled beneath his composed exterior and shaped his career, his passions, and his private life.              Now, in Steve McQueen, New York Times bestselling author, acclaimed biographer, and film historian, Marc Eliot captures the complexity of this Hollywood screen legend. Chronicling McQueen's tumultuous life both on and off the screen, from his hardscrabble childhood to his rise to Hollywood superstar status, to his struggles with alcohol and drugs and his fervor for racing fast cars and motorcycles, Eliot discloses intimate details of McQueen's three marriages, including his tumultuous relationships with Neile Adams and Ali MacGraw, as well as his numerous affairs. He also paints a full portrait of this incredible yet often perplexing career that ranged from great films to embarrassing misfires. Steve McQueen, adored by millions, was obsessed by Paul Newman, and it is the nature of that obsession that reveals so much about who McQueen really was. Perhaps his greatest talent was to be able to convince audiences that he was who he really wasn't, even as he tried to prove to himself that he wasn't who he really was.             With original material, rare photos, and new interviews, Eliot presents a fascinating and complete picture of McQueen's life.…
