As the title implies, this book focuses on the films of Bela Lugosi. It has a 30 page biography which gives a good overall idea of Lugosi's carreer without going into much detail. The rest of the book is a list of all of Lugosi's movies, with cast and crew details, contemporary reviews and the author's comments about each of his American sound movies, and also a list with brief descriptions of all of his European films and American silent films. The book also contains literally hundreds of pictures.

This is not a book that you would read cover to cover but rather a book for the Lugosi fan to come back to whenever you want to read about a specific Lugosi movie. So if you are just looking for a Lugosi biography, you may want to borrow this book in a library and read the biography section and also look for other books or articles, but if you're a Lugosi fan, this is a nice book to own.
