Tyrone Power: The Last Idol

This biography captures the restless spirit of Tyrone Power-an American film, stage, and radio actor who appeared in dozens of films, often as the handsome romantic lead. Guiles argues with vivid detail why Power was "without qualification the finest romantic voice of this century."
