The revised edition of my book about early TV (which will, like the original edition, be brought out by BearManor Media) is not yet available. Thought, though, that I would make note of some new (and forthcoming) BearManor titles (which are/will be available in both hardcover and paperback):
1. Bob Hope on TV: Thanks for the Video Memories, by Wesley Hyatt.
2. Frances Langford: Armed Forces Sweetheart, by Ben Ohmart.
3. Okay? Okay! Dennis James' Lifetime of Firsts, by Adam Nedeff.
4. Petrocelli, by Sandra Grabman. The book concerns the 1970s TV series, which starred Barry Newman. Says writer Max Allan Collins: "Now it's time to enjoy Sandy Grabman's fun, informative valentine to the best lawyer series of the 1970s, and one of the best of all time."
BearManor, for your reference, is currently having a sale. Its softcover and hardcover books are 30% off, through December 10th; there's a coupon code, at the following link. (The Frances Langford and Bob Hope books are not out yet, but can be pre-ordered.)
