Description de l'ouvrage:
Before his rise to superstardom portraying Detective Steve McGarrett on the long-running police drama Hawaii Five-O, Jack Lord was already a dedicated and versatile actor on Broadway, in film and on television.

His range of roles included a Virginia gentleman planter in Colonial Williamsburg (The Story of a Patriot), CIA agent Felix Leiter in the first James Bond movie (Dr. No) and the title character in the cult classic rodeo TV series Stoney Burke. Lord’s career culminated in twelve seasons on Hawaii Five-O, where his creative control of the series left an indelible mark on every aspect of its production.

This book, the first to draw on Lord’s massive personal archive, gives a behind-the-scenes look into the life and work of a TV legend.

Revue de Presse:
Finalist, Best Book Award—American Book Fest

"Recommended"—Against the Grain; "fills in the gaps and paints a rich, clear portrait of a gifted actor and an exceptional human being. Lynch offers a wealth of details about Lord’s life and career…. Readers will wind up with far greater admiration for, as well as knowledge of, this intense individual"—Pop Culture Classics.
