Steve McQueen: The Life and Legend of a Hollywood Icon [*SIGNED*]

[lovely, as-new copy, with no significant wear to either book or jacket]. INSCRIBED to a friend and SIGNED by the author on the front endpaper. actor. "Drawing from hundreds of interviews and exhaustive research, the author reveals shocking new details about the actor's early life. [He] traces McQueen's steps from his harrowing and painful childhood, through his glittering career, to the final days of his heroic battle with cancer." This is essentially a complete rewrite of the author's earlier (1994) biography of McQueen; as he explains in a prefatory note, his relative youth and inexperience at the time he researched and wrote his original book caused him to fall under the sway of the "McQueen Mystique," but that his continuing research, as well as his own greater personal maturity, has resulted in quite a different book, and undoubtedly a truer and more complete portrait of its iconic (but also self-mythologizing) subject. **** NOTE that additional shipping charges will be requested for international shipping of this moderately heavy book, or for Priority Mail service to U.S. addresses.
