Excerpt: Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (which has the onscreen title Bud Abbott Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein) is a 1948 American comedy horror film directed by Charles Barton and starring the comedy team of Abbott and Costello. It is the first of several films where the comedy duo meets classic characters from Universal's horror film stable. In this film, they encounter Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, and the Wolf Man, while subsequent films pair the duo with the Mummy, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and the Invisible Man. On a TV special in the early 1950s, the two did a sketch where they interacted with the latest original Universal Studios monster being promoted at the time, the Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954). The film is considered the swan song for the "Big Three" Universal horror monsters Dracula, the Wolf Man and Frankenstein's monster although it does not appear to fit within the loose continuity of the earlier films. The film was re-released in 1956 along with Abbott and Costello Meet the Killer, Boris Karloff. In 2001, the United States Library of Congress deemed this film "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry, and in September 2007, Readers Digest selected the movie as one of the t...http://booksllc.net/?id=68082 ...

Excerpt: Mae West (August 17, 1893 November 22, 1980) was an American actress, playwright, screenwriter and sex symbol. Known for her bawdy double entendres, West made a name for herself in Vaudeville and on the stage in New York before moving to Hollywood to become a comedienne, actress and writer in the motion picture industry. One of the more controversial movie stars of her day, West encountered many problems including censorship. When her cinematic career ended, she continued to perform on stage, in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television, and recorded rock and roll albums. West was born Mary Jane West in Bushwick, Brooklyn, King's County, New York, daughter of John Patrick West and Matilda "Tillie" Doelger (also spelled Delker). Her father was a prizefighter known as "Battlin' Jack West" who later w...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=173082 ... Read more

Product Description
It is the object of this series of histories to present a clear,
distinct, and connected narrative of the lives of those great personages who have in various ages of the world made themselves celebrated as leaders among mankind, and, by the part they have taken in the public affairs of great nations, have exerted the widest influence on the history of the human race. The end which the author has had in view is twofold: first, to communicate such information in respect to the subjects of his narratives as is important for the general reader to possess; and, secondly, to draw such moral lessons from the events described and the characters delineated as they may legitimately teach to the people of the present age. Though written in a direct and simplestyle, they are intended for, and addressed to, minds possessed of someconsiderable degree of maturity, for such minds only can fullyappreciate the character and action which exhibits itself, as nearly allthat is described in these volumes does, in close combination with theconduct and policy of governments, and the great events ofinternational history.
