Illustrated with 1500 photographs, halftone plates and line cuts, most made from Seton's own drawings from life, documents 100 land animals, "which are considered 'game,' either because they have held the attention of sportsmen, or received the protection of law."

A superb monument to American game animals north of Mexico, and their preservation.

Hollywood/NY/London/Toronto: Samuel French. Near Fine. 1990 (c.1982). 1st printing thus. Softcover. [slight bumping to bottom right corner, with resulting minor bending at lower corners of the first half of the book, plus a short diagonal crease at the bottom corner of the front cover; otherwise nice and clean and virtually as new]. Trade PB (B&W photographs) Deeply-researched, erudite, and heartfelt "making of" essays about fifteen great American films -- not necessarily "the best," as the author admits, but just a selection of "the audience's most cherished American sound feature films released between late 1931 and 1952" -- and, he's not shy about admitting, his own personal favorites as well. Rudy Behlmer was one of our great film historians, and his introduction tells us why: in addition to going into some detail about his own methods of research and writing, he puts forth a comprehensive and impassioned account about the importance of seeking out primary documentation -- in repositories both private (the studios themselves) and public (various libraries and archives). And although much of his reputation rests on his brilliant compilation and editing of such documents -- most notably for his books "Memo from David O. Selznick" (1982) and "Inside Warner Bros. (1935-1951)" (1985) -- he unabashedly confesses that it was the research and writing of this book that brought him "an extra quota of gratification." And talk about a great lineup of movies! Here are the inside stories of the making of: THE MALTESE FALCON; SINGIN' IN THE RAIN; SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS; STAGECOACH; A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE; TARZAN AND HIS MATE; THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD; THE AFRICAN QUEEN; ALL ABOUT EVE; CASABLANCA; FRANKENSTEIN; THE GRAPES OF WRATH; GUNGA DIN; HIGH NOON; LAURA; and LOST HORIZON. Plunge in, and enjoy! (Originally published under the title "America's Greatest Movies: Behind the Scenes.") (xx) .
