This book is azaming book for the fans of Frank Coghlan and the early Hollywood. Even, if you not an fan. Many good pictures of history and movies. So details that I could feel I knew the people from the book itself. It is recommended to read.

I live in the united kingdom, and as a 12yr old kid, i used to go to the saturday morning pictures at my local cinema, where the programme would always end with a republic, or columbia, picture serial in 12, or 15, chapters, no one could make these serials, like republic, and columbia, pictures they were great. my all time favourite, bieng .... the adventures of captain marvel... (1941)..... starring... tom tyler... as captain marvel... and frank coughlan jnr... as billy batson.... ive just added to my collection of books the autobiography of a child star.. they still call me jnr.. by frank coughlan jnr.. what a lovely book, what a great film actor.. he was a credit to the world of early motion pictures, a lovely man, with lots of lovely stories, about all the great films he appeared in and his life in the navy, this is a lovely book, written by a truly great film star, who is still remembered today , with great affection ,who sadly passed away september 2009. aged, 93. if like me you enjoyed these serials and films of the 1930s, and 1940s, then i can highly recommend this really lovely book, by a great star, of the early film serials and films. harold richards, redcar, united kingdom.
