1.0 out of 5 stars
Overpriced re-hash,
By Paladin "Have Gun ~ Will Travel" (La Brea Tar Pits, Loss Angellese) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eliot Ness and the Untouchables: The Historical Reality and the Film and Television Depictions (Paperback)
A 202-page paperback ... welcome to a typical McFarland "book."No new information, as the author simply took several earlier books and 'digested' them into this TOTAL waste of money.Who would want to pay ...for a 'work' that consists, primarily, of an episode guide for the tv show?Only TWENTY pages (out of a slim 202) are devoted to Eliot Ness.Then, about 20 more to the "real Al Capone and Frank Nitti."Then, on page 49, this so-called author starts in on movies and tv.So, in sum, if you want information on Eliot Ness, go elsewhere.And, save your $ ...I wish I had.

The book about the Untouchables,
By takamura "onoo" (loin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eliot Ness and the Untouchables: The Historical Reality and the Film and Television Depictions (Paperback)
The most comprehensive book ever written about the Untouchables! You can find everything you ever wanted to know about Eliot Ness and his arch enemies Al capone and Frank Nitti. A brief historical background about the real characters, the making of the pilot episode, the original series starring Robert Stack, the 1987 movie, the new series. A very detailed episode guide is also provided for both the series. This is the book that every fan of the Untouchables must have.
