  • Hollywood Gold: Famous Films of the Forties & Fifties

    by John Howard Reid ...
    John Howard Reid has written 3 books dealing specifically with American movies of the 1940s. The other two are titled "Memorable Films of the Forties" and "Popular Pictures of the Hollywood 1940s". However, I consider this book to be the best. Admittedly, I'm a little prejudiced because I contributed a few items myself such as additional comments on that colorful Maria Montez vehicle, "White ... Read more

  • Bible Wisdom: PSALMS of Praise & Power Newly Translated from the Greek Old Testament

    by John Howard Reid ...
    How many Psalms are there in the Bible? Nobody knows. Psalms are scattered all through the Old Testament, but this new translation is concerned only with the Psalms in the Biblical book of that title. Even here, however, the actual number is uncertain. Some Psalms have been duplicated, some have been joined together, others split apart. Most Bibles number the Psalms from 1 to 150. Which numbers ... Read more

  • POPULAR PICTURES of the Hollywood 1940s

    by John Howard Reid ...
    Headed "Fascinating Tour of the 1940s for Movie Buffs", the following review by Maria Trefely-Deutch appeared in The Sunday Telegraph: John Howard Reid's latest offering is every bit as idiosyncratic as his previous books in this series, and equally compulsive reading for film buffs. The present book provides a wealth of information. However, in his enthusiasm for the golden oldies, Reid does tend ... Read more

  • Films Famous, Fanciful, Frolicsome & Fantastic: Classic Movies from Cinema's Golden Age

    by John Howard Reid ...
    I had one aim in writing this book. I wanted to bring together in one place, ALL my favorite films. This, of course, was not possible. I have so many. But I did manage to include "Alias Nick Beal" (which John Farrow regarded as the best film he ever made), plus that wonderful Technicolor spoof, "Arabian Nights", plus "The Band Wagon" (What a cast! Fred Astaire, Jack Buchanan, Nanette Fabray, Oscar ... Read more

Other books include "Great Cinema Detectives" and "Mystery, Suspense, Film Noir and Detective Movies on DVD". These books are still in ... Read more
