Jimmy Stewart MUNN, MICHAEL
United Kingdom Anova Books 2005 1861058225 / 9781861058225 Hardback
both book & dust jacket are in very good condition posted from Australia fast delivery An openly right-wing conservative and super-patriot, Stewart worked for the FBI at the behest of J Edgar Hoover, directing his undercover sleuthing to crack organised crime in Hollywood. But he was unscrupulously manipulated by the president into flushing out Communists from the film industry. Yet there are also tales of heady love affairs, hookers and hoodlums, and of Stewart's run-in with the most dangerous of all gangsters, Benjamin 'Bugsy' Sigal. Accusations of racism are explored, Stewart's notoriously volatile temper, and the most comprehensive account of his experiences as a colonel in the Air Force in World War Two. Then there are the films; 'It's a Wonderful Life'; 'The Greatest Show on Earth'; 'Rear Window'; the westerns and his Academy Awards.

Bette Davis SPADA, JAMES
United Kingdom Little, Brown Book Group 1995 075150940X / 9780751509403 Soft Cover
Good condition size 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. From bestselling author James Spada comes a biography of one of the few genuine Hollywood legends - Bette Davis. Revealing a life replete with scandal, sex, violence, courage and sacrifice, BETTE DAVIS: MORE THAN A WOMAN is the fruit of three years of painstaking research, including in-depth interviews with Davis' relatives, colleagues and friends. It is a portrait of one of the most complex and misrepresented women in Hollywood history, and details many of the trials and traumas that were to shape her troubled life: her strangely close relationship with her mother; her ambivalent attitude towards sex; her possible role in the brain damage of her adopted daughter and her stormy, roller- coaster marriages.
