This review is from: Peter Cushing: An Autobiography and Past Forgetting (Library Binding)

This is a book that is collaborated from his previous 2 books, An Autobiography, and Past Forgettings: Memoirs of the Hammer Years. This book has many pictures and a lot of information about the great Peter Cushing. He was a great actor and gentleman. He sadly passed away 6 years ago from cancer. If you are a fan of Mr. Peter Cushing's, then please take a look at this fabulous book dedicated to the wonderful man.
