You'll feel as if you've met the real man in this book!
Fans, film historians, and even other biographers owe a lot to Martinetti's ground-breaking book. He presents a rounded, candid view of the boy from Indiana who became an icon on September 30, 1955.

Fans, film historians, and even other biographers owe a lot to Martinetti's ground-breaking book. He presents a rounded, candid view of the boy from Indiana who became an icon on September 30, 1955.
