Of plates : ill. ; 25 cm. Subjects: Welles, Orson 1915-1985. Motion picture producers and directors --United States --Biography. Summary: While it is a shame that Orson Welles, great filmmaker and master raconteur, never wrote a full account of his life, this book is the next best thing to a Welles autobiography. Barbara Leaming's main sources are the hundreds of hours of interviews she conducted with Welles in the three years before his death. Though clearly biased toward its subject, this book benefits considerably from Welles's wit and charm, which can be felt in Leaming's summaries of the director's experiences and in the generous number of quotations from Welles himself. At Leaming's urging, and to the reader's great pleasure, Welles recounts the whole of his fascinating life, discussing his relationship with his parents and guardians; his early promise as a musical and artistic prodigy; his brilliant successes in the theater while still a teenager; his foundation--with John Houseman--of the Mercury theater; the legendary radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds; the triumph of Citizen Kane; the successful efforts of RKO studios to alter and crush the films he made after Kane; his friendship with Franklin Roosevelt; his marriage to Rita Hayworth and countless other affairs (including a rhapsody on Dolores del Rio's custom-made underwear, if that's your cup of tea); his relationship with Oja Kodar; and his later film career in America and Europe. An entertaining read that unfolds like a good novel, Orson Welles offers a perspective on the maestro's life that deserves to be compared to more recent biographies of Welles by Frank Brady, Simon Callow, and David Thomson, all of which have prejudices of their own. 1 Kg.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. Backpacking into the Wind River Mountains on their tenth annual trip, Mack and his wife, Vonnie, find the magnificent woods and stunning mountains of Wyoming full of ghosts and danger. Mack comes from a long line of ranchers, and his dedication to keeping the family land has led him into penury and a life of crime. Vonnie is a fiercely intelligent, headstrong girl who came west for love, only to have it stolen from her bit by bit. They've made this trip to say goodbye to each other, but as they navigate the trails they know so well, they come to understand the true nature of their wounds. And Mack has one more secret: he is trying to receive a signal and retrieve something that has fallen from the sky. It is a beacon that will lead them into a wood far darker than they've ever imagined. Ron Carlson's love for the mountains and his mastery of fiction radiate in the pages of this thrilling, fast-paced love story.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. In the gritty underworld of beautiful babes, meathead thugs, and flying bullets, Streeter--ex-linebacker and private investigator extraordinaire--has always reigned supreme. In "Totally Dead," Denver's favorite tough guy must battle a whole new set of low-lifes when he represents Alphonse Lucci, restaurateur and small-time mafioso. When Al lands in hot water with major-league bad guys, Streeter finds himself in the middle of a pizza war, dodging bullets, meatballs, and a hot Italian side dish--namely Al's sexy daughter. As gracefully as ever, Michael Stone maneuvers the action-packed and darkly humorous world of his latest noir adventure. Fans of the sizzling Streeter series will find this, his fourth tale, supremely satisfying. In Streeter, private eye Michael Stone has crafted the ultimate hard-nosed hero, "reminiscent of Mike Hammer and Phillip Marlowe with a soupç on of Spenser for good measure" ( "Milwaukee Journal Sentinel" ).

First Edition. In this delightfully surprising history, Laura Shapiroauthor of the classic Perfection Saladrecounts the prepackaged dreams that bombarded American kitchens during the fifties. Faced with convincing homemakers that foxhole food could make it in the dining room, the food industry put forth the marketing notion that cooking was hard; opening cans, on the other hand, wasnt. But women werent so easily convinced by the canned and plastic-wrapped concoctions and a battle for both the kitchen and the true definition of homemaker ensued. Beautifully written and full of wry observation, this is a fun, illuminating, and definitely easy-to-digest look back at a crossroads in American cooking.
