The Barrymores
Spanning over six generations, two continents, and three centuries, the family of actors that would be known as the Barrymores has become an emblem of the American stage and screen.

Including beautiful portraits from John and Dolores's honeymoon, film stills, and dozens of other rare photographs, this collection is the first to fully present the glamour and the legend that is Barrymore.
The Fixers
Eddie Mannix and Howard Strickling are virtually unknown outside of Hollywood and little-remembered even there, but as General Manager and Head of Publicity for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, they lorded over all the stars in Hollywood's golden age from the 1920s through the 1940s--including legends like Garbo, Dietrich, Gable and Garland.

Ten Difficult Women: Their Impact and Legacy
That "well behaved women rarely make history" is a fact. Those who do make history are too busy developing their unique talents, expressing their authentic selves, and fulfilling their life's purpose to worry about conforming to senseless rules, being superficially "nice," or fitting-in. Ten Difficult Women explores the question: "What made them that way?" In the process, it uncovers surprising similarities between personalities as diverse and separated by time and place as: Rosa Parks, Coco Chanel, Hillary Clinton, Queen Boudicca, Harriet Tubman, Drew Barrymore, Sarah Palin, Toby Riddle, Anne Frank, and the mother of all "difficult women," Eve. A fascinating study!
