Not a good book
I had expected that I would enjoy reading this book because it is about two people I find interesting. Also I had read another biography that Warren Harris had done on Clark Gable and felt that it was good.

This book however is nowhere near as good as his book on Clark Gable, not even close. Warren Harris just used regurgitated information on Natalie and Robert Wagner. It seemed as if he did not even do any research into the book: an example of this was in describing Natalie's parents. Her father was born in Vladivostok,and was poor. He also said that the same thing was probably true of her mother as well. According to Natalie'smother and half-aunt that is not true and if Mr. Harris had bothered to do any research he would have found that according to Natalie's mother and aunt they were born in Siberia to a set of rich parents, had nannies, and other household staff.

I would recommend reading Natasha: The life of Natalie Wood instead of this book. It had better, more accurate information.

Very hard to recommend...
The quality of the writing is poor; it would not pass muster in even most entertainment magazines. It gives little sense of Natalie and Robert as artists or as a couple, being far more interested in cataloguing their various trysts and affairs. Fans should not expect any significant insight into the making of their lives nor about their films. Behind-the-scenes detail and anecdotes are perfunctory at best. Lacking either craft in its writing or insight into Natalie and Robert themselves, it's hard to recommend this one.

This book is a joke
I can't believe anyone would publish this book. It's inaccurate, badly written, and the author didn't even talk to anyone!All he did was copy information about Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner from easily found magazines or tabloids and recycle it without even bothering to find out if it's true.

Most Objective Bio Available on Natalie!
I think this book is definitely worth reading.It is the most objective book available on Natalie so far.Though its main focus, as the title hints, is the beautiful love story between Natalie and Robert Wagner, Harris also gives a lot of details on Natalie's death.Try to locate acopy of this...it is worth it! ...

Product Description
In Hollywood Nudes in 3D! a dazzling array of Hollywood starlets, including Marilyn Monroe, Bettie Page, Dixie Evans, and Tura Satana, come to life in all of their enticing loveliness.

Harold Lloyd, star of such classic silent films as Safety Last and The Freshman, shot more than 300,000 photographs with a stereoscopic (3D) camera. Many of the photos were of young women who dreamed of making it big in Hollywood. Here--for the first time ever in book form--are 200 of Lloyd's most lavish, luscious, and ludicrous pictures of Hollywood nudes posed against some of the most dramatic and creative backgrounds imaginable. Approximately 75 are reproduced in tantalizing 3D, and can be viewed with the aid of the special "Harold Lloyd-style" glasses included with the book. ... Read more

Real women! Sexy, sweet and playful
No glasses came with my copy so no grumbling about how crummy the 3D effect is. Iconic images from the golden age of the American pin up girl featuring many known and unknown models. The main hook here is Harold's use of 3D photography to add a new dimension to the experience. Apparently he never took any of his hobbies lightly and amassed tens of thousands of nude photos which luckily were thoughtfully preserved. The results here range from something you might see in a life drawing class, home made nudie shots of granny that grandpa took to the fun, seductive joy of Bettie Page's smile. Pages 112-125 almost veer into an Ed Wood style wackiness with the devil, blood and an aggressive tiger rug!

The use of props to keep things tasteful is one of the most amusing aspects of this book. Creative use of pine cones, flowers, mink stoles and feathers abound. Wicker bull heads get my vote. The photos themselves are sweet, playful and just a little naughty.

The art direction of this book is clever, lenticular cover and entertaining chapter headers designed to keep the spirit of fun going. Text discussing Harold's creative approach to 3D photography (and strippers!) is done with affection and warmth.


Certainly if you're into old school beauty this book is for you. I think one of the most, if not THE most significant things about this book is that it is a time capsule of an era...a time when women actually looked like real women. Their bodies are normally and healthily proportioned, curvy and soft. It is a far cry from today's harsh, emaciated farce culture of what feminine beauty is. Plus the tone is fun, sexy and a little wacky. I think we take sex way too seriously these days!

This book would also make a terrific gift for those into retro pin up art and who also like a little gimmick to go along with it (3D effect). This would essentially cover just about everyone I know. :D

Not as good as Harold Lloyds 3D Hollywood
I expected this book to be as good as Harold Lloyd's other 3D book (3D Hollywood). It was not.
This book uses 3D anaglyphs (viewed with 2 color glasses) instead of 3D parallel pairs. Color saturation in anaglyphs is not as good as 3D parallel pairs. Another problem is that many of the stereo images suffer from "windows violations". This is where the eye is forced to diverge to look at distant objects while trying to focus at the media surface where the images really reside. There are also images where an object appears in one color but is blocked (and does not appear) in the other color. Both circumstances make it difficult to focus the eyes when viewing the image.

On the other hand, the ladies are very pretty.

not enough 3d
I was dissapointed in this book as The stereo images on the whole were just not good enoughas,as well as being to few. The book quality was good, I feel this book would have been have sold in one of the many cheap book stores.

Some of the best of that Era
Lloyd was a facinating and diverse man. Besides film and 3D photography, he also enjoyed painting and magic/mentalism as hobbies - all of which I shared until the 3D bug bit me hard as well.

Any 3D person who peruses eBay is familiar with the type of "nudie" 3D slides of that era. Because of his Hollywood connections, the beauty of Lloyds models stand very well above the standard stuff (in what other 3D collection can Betty Page seem only second-string?). Some of these girls were actually established, professional LA models who never posed nude for anyone else.

Lloyd's artistic sense also shines through, and the props, settings, color, composition and depth rise above nearly all the others in the genre. The book design itself is also a treat (and interesting to actually read!)

Ignore the complaints. Virtually any anaglyph book I've seen came with inferior glasses. Any dedicated 3Der who actually minds the glasses is also likely to have a good, substitute pair on hand. Registration mistakes are uncommon only in the more exclusive, pricey 3D portfolio books - which this book doesn't pretend to be. While I'd love to eventually see a well-made, high-end, dual image book, this is still worthwhile for any 3D, glamour or retro fan, especially at the low prices offered.

Use different 3-D glasses
Many of the reviews here complain that the anaglyph conversions are misaligned. This is somewhat true of a few pictures. The real problem is that the 3-D glasses provided with the book are just plain terrible and the images suffer considerable 'bleed-through.' Use standard red/cyan 3D glasses and most of the pictures are magnificent.

Excerpt: Johann Kaspar Schmidt (October 25, 1806 June 26, 1856), better known as Max Stirner (the nom de plume he adopted from a schoolyard nickname he had acquired as a child because of his high brow, in German 'Stirn'), was a German philosopher, who ranks as one of the literary fathers of nihilism, existentialism, post-modernism and anarchism, especially of individualist anarchism. Stirner's main work is The Ego and Its Own, also known as The Ego and His Own (Der Einzige und sein Eigentum in German, which translates literally as The Only One and his Property). This work was first published in 1844 in Leipzig, and has since appeared in numerous editions and translations. Max Stirner's birthplace in BayreuthStirner was born in Bayreuth, Bavaria. What little is known of his life is mostly due to the Scottish born German writer John Henry Mackay, who wrote a biography of Stirner (Max Stirner - sein Leben und sein Werk), published in German in 1898 (enlarged 1910, 1914), and translated into English in 2005. Stirner was the only child of Albert Christian Heinrich Sch...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=112282 ... Read more

Auszug: Alsace-Lorraine (German: , generally Elsass-Lothringen) was a territory created by the German Empire in 1871 after the annexation of most of Alsace and the Moselle region of Lorraine in the Franco-Prussian War. The Alsatian part lay in the Rhine Valley on the west bank of the Rhine River and east of the Vosges Mountains. The Lorraine section was in the upper Moselle valley to the north of the Vosges Mountains. These territories had become part of Eastern Francia in 921 during the reign of King Louis the German, and later became part of the Holy Roman Empire. Their population spoke Germanic and Romance dialects. Those in Alsace spoke in their vast majority Germanic dialects, in particular Alsatian, an Alemannic German dialect similar to that spoken on the opposite bank of the Rhine, while those in Lorraine were divided roughly equally between those who spoke the Romance Lorrain dialect and those who spoke Franconian German dialects. The area had gradually become part of France between 1552, when Metz was ceded to ...http://booksllc.net/?l=de ... Read more

Excerpt: Johann Sebastian Bach (German pronunciation: or ) (31 March 1685 28 July 1750) (often referred to simply as Bach) was a German composer, organist, harpsichordist, violist, and violinist whose ecclesiastical and secular works for choir, orchestra, and solo instruments drew together the strands of the Baroque period and brought it to its ultimate maturity. Although he did not introduce new forms, he enriched the prevailing German style with a robust contrapuntal technique, an unrivalled control of harmonic and motivic organisation, and the adaptation of rhythms, forms and textures from abroad, particularly from Italy and France. Revered for their intellectual depth, technical command and artistic beauty, Bach's works include the Brandenburg concertos, the Goldberg Variations, the Partitas, The Well-Tempered Clavier, the Mass in B Minor, the St Matthew Passion, the St John Passion, the Magnificat, The Musical Offering, The Art of Fugue, the English and French Suites, the Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin, the Cello Suites, more than 200 surviving cantatas, and a similar number of organ works, including the celebrated Toccata and Fugue in D minor and Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor. Bach's abilities as an organist were highly respected throughout Europe during his lifetime, although he was not widely recognised as a great composer until a revival of interest and pe...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=9906294 ...

Extrait : Paul Joseph Goebbels, né le 29 octobre 1897 à Rheydt et mort à Berlin le 1 mai 1945, est un homme politique allemand, membre du Parti national-socialiste. Ministre du Reich à l'Éducation du peuple et à la Propagande sous le Troisième Reich de 1933 à 1945, son nom reste indissolublement lié à l'emploi des techniques modernes de la manipulation des masses et de la démagogie qu'ont été capables de diffuser les propagandes des États totalitaires. Joseph Goebbels était un ami proche d'Adolf Hitler et, avec Hermann Goering et Heinrich Himmler, un des ministres les plus puissants et influents du régime national-socialiste, particulièrement par sa position de ministre du Reich à l'Éducation du peuple et à la Propagande. Il s'est donné la mort à Berlin le 1 mai 1945, avec son épouse Magda, après avoir empoisonné leurs six enfants. Paul Joseph Goebbels voit le jour à Rheydt, une petite ville industrielle au sud de Mönchengladbach le 29 octobre 1897. Il est le fruit du mariage, en 1892 de Fritz Goebbels, garçon de course dans une fabrique de réverbères, passant ensuite au grade de commis, d'employé de bureau puis de comptable ; et de Katharina Odenhausen, domestique dans une ferme, tous deux catholiques ; outre Joseph, le couple engendre cinq autre enfants : Konrad (1893-1949), Hans (1895-1947), Maria(1896-1896), Elisabeth (1901-1915) et Maria (1910).
