The shocking fate of the world's first movie star. Clark Gable's secret love child. The cat who conquered Hollywood. The film that nearly ended Paul Newman's career. The never before told #metoo story of a former child star. These tales and many more unfold in this volume that is by turns riveting, comical, maddening, and inspiring.

This is a wonderful TCM book spotlighting 'Old Hollywood' and featuring a few of the stars who enjoyed a brief brush with fame but faded into obscurity. It should be noted, however, many recognizable names get their fair share of space in this book, as well.
The layout of the book is cleverly patterned after vintage fan magazines and is chock full of vivid, color photographs and the most interesting Hollywood history.
Early silent film stars, forgotten heart throbs, power couples, animal movie stars, (Remeber Rin Tin Tin?), successful women behind the camera, the first Academy Awards show, saving the 'Hollywood' sign, child stars, musicals, and spotlights on various film stars like Paul Newman and Rita Hayworth.
I think this book would make a great gift for the fans of old Hollywood, Turner Classic Movies, or history! (
