Book Description
Steve McQueen: A Tribute to the King of Cool, tells the actor's story in chronological order through the eyes of those who knew him best: family, friends, co-stars, business associates, acquaintances and adoring fans from around the globe. Written in passage form, each person brings a different view to the man and legend, presenting him in an unsurpassed 360-degree perspective. 'It's unique in its presentation because it reads like a biography, but it's really a photo and tribute book,' Terrill said, who spent nearly three years compiling the information. There's really nothing else on the market quite like it. 'I know it will please McQueen fans.' Accompanying the 200 passages are hundreds of photos taken of McQueen throughout his life and movie career, many seen here for the first time, as well as personal items, documents and movie memorabilia. The book will also include a foreword by Barbara McQueen, a Steve McQueen family tree, quotes by several Hollywood luminaries. Each book is signed by the author, Marshall Terrill, and by Barbara McQueen and includes a CD with a recording taken at Loyola Marymount University in 1978 of Steve McQueen giving a rare lecture about his life. It is encased in a custom slipcase.
