Bogie: The Final Chapter

“A brilliant, insightful look at an iconic actor and the time we all revere. Eli writes
with compassion and understanding of his remarkable relationship with Humphrey
Bogart.”
– Mark Rydell, director of On Golden Pond, with Jane and Henry Fonda
and Katherine Hepburn, and The Reivers, with Steve McQueen

“Eli Rill has written a book (Bogie: The Final Chapter) that puts you, the reader, into
a vivid and immediate personal experience with Humphrey Bogart. I could not put
it down, breezed throughout, lamented the fact that I’d come to the last page.
I recommend it heartedly for a midwinter read in front of a woodburning fireplace.”
– Martin Landau, Academy Award winner
