Resumen del Editor
From the veteran New York Times best-selling biographer comes a major, in-depth look at one of the most enduring American icons of all time, "the Duke", John Wayne.
As he did in his best-selling biographies of Jimmy Stewart and Clint Eastwood, acclaimed Hollywood biographer Marc Eliot digs deep beneath the myth in this revealing look at the most legendary Western film hero of all time; the man with the distinctive voice, walk, and demeanor who was an inspiration to many and a symbol of American masculinity, power, and patriotism.
Eliot pays tribute to the man and the myth, identifying and analyzing the many interesting contradictions that made John Wayne who he was: an Academy Award-winning actor associated with cowboys and soldiers who didn’t like horses and never served in a war; a Republican icon who voted for Democrats Roosevelt and Truman; a white man often accused of racism who married three Mexican wives. Here are stories of the movies he made famous as well as numerous friends and legendary colleagues such as John Ford, Maureen O'Hara, Natalie Wood, and Dean Martin.
A top box-office draw for more than three decades - starring in 142 films from Stagecoach and True Grit, for which he won the Oscar to The Quiet Man and The Green Berets - John Wayne's life and career paralleled nearly the entire 20th century, from the Depression through World War II to the upheavals of the 1960s. Setting his life within the sweeping political and social transformations that defined the nation, Eliot's masterful portrait of the man they called Duke is a remarkable in depth look at a life and the "American Century" itself.

Mary Tyler Moore made her name as Dick Van Dyke's wife on the eponymous show; she was a cute, unassuming housewife that audiences loved. But when screenwriters James Brooks and Allan Burnes dreamed up an edgy show about a divorced woman with a career, network executives replied: "Americans won't watch television about New York City, divorcées, men with mustaches, or Jews." But Moore and her team were committed, and when the show finally aired, in spite of tepid reviews, fans loved it.

In a career spanning five decades, Nick Nolte has endured the rites of Hollywood celebrity. Rising from obscurity to leading roles and Oscar nominations, he has been both celebrated and vilified in the media; survived marriages, divorces, and a string of romances; was named the "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine; and suffered public humiliation over his drug and alcohol issues, including a drug-fueled trip down a "long road of nothingness" that ended in arrest.

Nicolas Cage is many things, but love him, or laugh at him, there's no denying two things: You've seen one of his many films, and you certainly know his name. But who is he, really, and why has his career endured for over 40 years, with more than a hundred films, and birthed a million memes? Age of Cage is a smart, beguiling book about the films of Nicolas Cage and the actor himself, as well as a sharp-eyed examination of the changes that have taken place in Hollywood over the course of his career.

They stand at the apex of the great age of songwriting, the creators of the classic Broadway musicals Oklahoma!, Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I, and The Sound of Music, whose songs have never lost their popularity or emotional power. Even before they joined forces, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II had written dozens of Broadway shows, but together they pioneered a new art form: the serious musical play.

It was the best of times and the worst of times for Hollywood before the war. The box office was booming, and the studios’ control of talent and distribution was as airtight as could be hoped. But the industry’s relationship with Washington was decidedly uneasy - hearings and investigations into allegations of corruption and racketeering were multiplying, and hanging in the air was the insinuation that the business was too foreign, too Jewish, too "un-American" in its values and causes. Could an industry this powerful in shaping America’s mind-set really be left in the hands of this crew?

Very Different Man from Screen
I've loved watching JW on screen for the past 50 years! However, this was my first opportunity to hear the personal and off screen stories that made me feel good in some cases but disappointed in others. I realized John Wayne is human and not the White Knight many of us made him out to be. For the most part I enjoyed the book, and it was worth reading. In fact I've read it twice and let me point out the narration was especially good which is truly important. I hope you find it as enjoyable as I did, the good as well as the bad.

Needed a better editor.
Glaring errors abound in this pedestrian biography of the American legend. I cringe at simple mistakes in published works, especially when they are repeated. The author (or was it just the narrator) continually called Hemingway's FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS, "FOR WHOM THE BELLS TOLL". There are numerous other goofs and gaffes in an unrevealing, retread of the actor's life. Any visit with Duke Wayne is entertaining, but Marc Eliot's biographies are lazy, paint by number efforts. I keep reading them, but continually wonder why. Try Scott Eyman's compelling, comprehensive bio JOHN WAYNE, THE LIFE AND LEGEND, instead. Not terrible, just lightweight.

Perspective of Duke
I can't dispute some of the views shared in this biography but after reading so many on Wayne there are many things written here that do not Feel correct. It's written & read well but I would encourage the listener to take some of its content with a grain of salt so to speak.

Not the best writing or outline.
There are many other John Wayne novels out there that give and tell a better story, especially his last 7 to 8 years, vs the 40's & 50's Wayne has never been given credit for his acting. Yes he made what the ""Critic's"" like to call 'B' movies in the 30's.. The man was making a living and supporting his family,,,,but then look a just a few of his powerful movies that were never given the acting credit he deserved. EXAMPLE of just a few: RED RIVER, The SERACHERS nd maybe the saddest to get not even a nomination, THE SHOOTIST
