Description
"My Wicked, Wicked Ways" by Errol Flynn, published by G.P. Putnam's Sons, New York, 1959. First Edition with copyright 1959 by the publisher and original price of $4.95 on the front flap of the dust jacket.
"This is a major autobiography in the tradition of Cellini, Casanova, and Frank Harris." [The Guardian]
"A document on Hollywood life far beyond its fan magazine fascination… . [Flynn] delivers footnotes to film history that are hard to come by." [San Francisco Chronicle]
Original dust jacket [some wear, creases, the upper part of the back flap is damaged: see photos]; the dust jacket is protected in archival mylar cover; hard boards, original black cloth with lettering on spine; 6" x 8.3/4"; slightly darkened endpapers, 438 + 1 blank pages, very good condition.
"Known to millions as the preeminent swashbuckler of the silver screen, Errol Flynn was a complex man who lived a life far more adventurous than any of his films. In My Wicked, Wicked Ways, Flynn reveals himself to be a self-aware and cosmopolitan devotee of excitement and pleasure. With gusto, he recalls his years as a soldier of fortune in the South Seas, his trip to war-torn Spain, his battles in Hollywood with studio honchos (Jack Warner was a particular nemesis) and ex-wives (esp. Lili Damita), and the furor surrounding his trial for rape in 1943." [from a review]
