FROM HISTORY TO HOLLYWOOD! We all live and die by our reputation and poor Lucretia Borgia suffered more than most. Don't worry; I've set that right. What about the chump who led the Charge of the Light Brigade? Everything you want to know is right here, right now. My revelations include exciting tales from the Old West and the Old Testament. Naturally, they are not first-hand accounts, but who would challenge their veracity? Some of my stories are a bit Hammett and Hitchcock, and that is became I have chosen to highlight some of the heroes of our time; men and women who lay it on the line for Queen or country. I'm glad you have chosen this book. It is adult fare, but suitable for most children under thirty. Gerry Burke
