ALL THE RIVERS RUN (TV Mini-Series)
by Nancy Cato. Sigrid Thornton series photo cover. B&W movie stills section. Condition: Gently pre-read 1979 Signet New American Library paperback, 6th printing. Pale spine crease with light tanning to page edges. Remainder. Content: "Here is a spellbinding story of a beautiful and vital woman - the man she loved, the children she bore, the dreams she followed, and the destiny she found. Set against the lush, wild countryside and winding rivers of Victorian Australia, is a saga that surges over eight decades and four generations". The wonderful Australian mini-series concentrates on the life and loves of riverboat captain Delie Gordon and her many "lives." The 1980s mini-series lists two directors: Pino Amenta & George Miller - no idea if that is correct. The stars are the beautiful Sigrid Thornton (as Delie), John Waters, John Alansu, Roy Baldwin, and Kirk Alexander. The book is wonderful; the movie even better - BUT don't buy the commercially available movie - over 100 minutes have been cut out of the original mini-series. Wait for HBO to show it again and tape it from there. [1 copy available]

AMERIKA: The Triumph of the American Spirit (TV Mini-Series)
by Brauna E. Pouns. From screenplay by Donald Wrye. Condition: Gently pre-read 1987 Pocket paperback original, first printing. Light edgewear with rubbings along bottom half hinges. Interior clean & tight. NO tanning. Content: America has been bloodlessly taken over by the Soviet Union, leading to slave-labor camps for some, collaboration for others and rebellion for yet others. Rumored to be a tip of the hat to the "right wing" in response to the "liberal" mini-series, The Day After, this series was diected by Donald Wrye, and starred Kris Kristofferson, Robert Urich, Wendy Hughes, San Neill, Cindy Pickett, Mariel Hemmingway, Dorian Harewood, Christine Lahti, and the great Armin Mueller-Stahl. "It sparked much controversy from many camps long before it even aired. Many liberals dismissed the mini-series as right wing paranoia, while many conservatives complained that the Soviet brutality that was depicted was seriously underplayed. Several re-writes and production delays resulted. Many objected to it on the basis that it could damage American-Soviet relations. The United Nations publicly objected to the depiction of United Nations Peacekeeping Forces as a Soviet controlled occupying force. The Soviet government at one point threatened to shut down the ABC News Moscow Bureau if the mini-series aired (although this threat was never carried out.)" ABC stood its ground and the series aired. [1 copy available]

HERE ON GILLIGAN'S ISLE
The Professor's Behind-the-Scenes Guide to Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Gilligan's Island, Including a Complete Episode Guide - And More!
by Russell Johnson with Steve Cox. B&W photos & series stills. Condition: UNREAD, but not perfect, 1993 HarperPerennial Trade Paperback, first edition, first printing. The first 5 pages show "wrinkles" bottom of pages - perhaps shelf wear. Content: Johnson tells his life story in a modest and entertaining fashion. His good nature, and sense of fairness is evident throughout. The book covers Johnson's life as "Professor Roy Hinkley", his remembrances of the Gilligan's Island years, and thoughts about his fellow island castaways. The book has a multitude of terrific photos, many from behind the scenes. With nothing mean-spirited to say, this is a warm "feel good" read, that is over much too quickly. There are many fascinating stories of interest to hardcore fans. Perhaps the most significant for the author, concerns the pilot episode. Shot in 1963, but never aired until 1992, the pilot featured different actors as The Professor, Ginger and Mary Ann. Circumstances led to the recasting of these roles with Johnson, Tina Louise and Dawn Wells. Most fans know that the show's theme song was re-recorded for the second season to include "The Professor and Mary Ann". But in this book we learn that the musical group that performed the second version, later appeared on the program as the rock group "The Mosquitoes". Johnson devotes some time to the assortment of guest stars that visited the island, and the issue of censorship. Also covered are the post series years, and the events leading to the rescue movie, and other related Gilligan's Island projects. The "Ship's Log", a brief summary of the 98 episodes, concludes this thoroughly enjoyable book that all fans of the series will appreciate. [1 copy available]

James’s craftsmanship is nothing short of amazing, and his choppers are wonders of mechanical menace. "Now here’s a guy to get your motor running." [1 copy available]

MARK AND LIVY: The Love Story of Mark Twain and the Woman Who (Almost) Tamed Him
by Resa Willis. B&W photo section. Condition: NEW 2000 TV Books Trade Paperback, no printing given. Content: Olivia Langston (1845-1904) married Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens) in 1870 and remained his wife for 34 years. In line with the conventions of the times, she saw herself as a wife, mother and "tamer" of iconoclastic Twain. However as Willis, literature professor at Drury College in Missouri, points out in this carefully researched, readable biography, Langston was also his valued critic and editor. In humorous anecdotes Twain portrayed "Livy" as a shrew--but the relationship between the mild-mannered, self-effacing woman and the cantankerous literary genius was apparently one of deep commitment and love. Their affection for one another, claims Willis, saw them through the rise and fall of their financial fortunes, the death of their daughter and Livy's many illnesses. The author's access to letters and journals gives insight into both husband and wife, as well as providing a portrait of American domestic life in the late 1800s. This book was the basis for the Masterpiece Theatre program. There is, at this date, no VHS/DVD of this program. [1 copy available]

THE WEDDING
by Dorothy West. Norman Lewis cover painting. Condition: UNREAD 1995 Anchor Books Trade Paperback, 8th printing. Content: The tranquility of a late summer weekend in 1953 is shattered by a tragic accident in this spare, affecting novel by one of the last surviving members of the Harlem Renaissance. The Oval, the exclusive black enclave on Martha's Vineyard, prepares for the marriage of Shelby Coles, daughter of one of the community's most admired couples. Shelby's choice of white jazz musician Meade Wyler awakens dormant but unresolved racial issues in her family, which includes her physician father, enduring a loveless but socially proper union; her mother, confronting a dwindling pool of partners for her discreet affairs, and her great-grandmother, who dreams of escaping her ambivalence by returning to her aristocratic Southern roots. The arrival of black artisan Lute McNeil upsets the precarious equilibrium of the Oval when his aggressive pursuit of Shelby leads to disaster. Through the ancestral histories of the Coles family, West subtly reveals the ways in which color can burden and codify behavior. The author makes her points with a delicate hand, maneuvering with confidence and ease through a sometimes incendiary subject. The 1998 Oprah Winfrey TV miniseries was directed by Charles Burnett and starred Halle Berry, Eric Thal, Lynn Whitfield, Carl Lumbly, Shirley Knight, Richard Brooks, Michael Warren, and Patricia Clarkson.
