Book Description
The Maltese Falcon has been widely lauded since its original publication in 1930. In its movie adaptation, it not only birthed American film noir but also ranks as one of the 100 greatest movies of all time, as selected by the American Film Institute. Now this treasury of memorabilia on Sam Spade and his creator, Dashiell Hammett, uncovers a wealth of documents and photos about the book and movie from institutional and private archives, many of which are previously unpublished and are available nowhere else. Providing far more information than any resource before it, the book delves deeply into the tale of the jeweled avian statue, including a full account of Hammett's detective career, a chronology of his life and publications, sources and notes the author used in constructing the book, and never-before-seen documents from the book's film, stage, and radio adaptations. This version has been updated to include additional contents, color photos, and an index. Available now for any audience, it will be a joy for fans of Sam Spade, Hammett, film noir, and the history of cinema and literature.

Amazing Collection of Materials on the Genesis and Legacy of "The Maltese Falcon". .......2007-01-07
"Discovering the Maltese Falcon and Sam Spade" is an amazing collection of materials related to Dashiell Hammett, his greatest novel "The Maltese Falcon", the film adaptations of the book, and other spin-offs assembled by Hammett biographer Richard Layman. Layman states in his introduction, "The purpose of this volume is to provide researchers basic materials useful in studying 'The Maltese Falcon'." Not everything ever written about "The Maltese Falcon" is here, but the contents of this book are remarkably varied. The collection is probably too dense for casual fans of "The Maltese Falcon", but it's indispensable for Hammett scholars and aficionados. The only fault I find is that reproductions of newspaper and other type-written materials are sometimes poor and would have benefited from enhancement.
The book is organized into five parts. The first part, "Detective Days", provides biographical information on Dashiell Hammett, a history of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency, an interview with a colleague of Hammett's at Pinkerton, excerpts from books on criminal investigation that Hammett studied, and some non-fiction pieces that Hammett wrote about his detective days. The second section, "The Pulps and the Making of the Novel", includes a history of "Black Mask" magazine, the historical basis for the Maltese Falcon statuette, comments by "Black Mask" editor Joseph T. Shaw, some reviews of Hammett's mystery fiction, and many excerpts from Hammett's stories that later inspired characters and events in "The Maltese Falcon".
"Magazine and Book Publication" begins with a copy of Hammett's book contract with Knopf and correspondence with publisher Harry Block. There are covers of "Black Mask" issues that serialized "The Maltese Falcon", examples of text that was revised between magazine publication and book publication, early book jackets, many favorable reviews of the book, Dorothy Parker's tepid review of "The Glass Key", articles about Cecil Henderson's plagiarism, and sales data for the novel. The forth section, "Critical Views of 'The Maltese Falcon'", is seven pieces of relatively recent literary criticism that explore American individualism, Sam Spade's vernacular, the novel as introverted romance, as allegory of international politics between the wars, and the pursuit of tangible wealth, among other themes.
The last section, "Movies, Stage, and Radio: Hammett's Novel in Popular Culture", follows Hammett's life after the publication of the novel, followed by discussions of the script, budget, and reviews for the first film adaptation at Warner Brothers in 1931. More letters from Warner Brothers, title suggestions, correspondence with the Breen Office, and reviews of the second movie adaptation, "Satan Met a Lady", in 1936. For John Huston's 1941 adaptation, there is a letter from Joseph Breen citing Production Code violations in the script, a budget, letters about filming, Mary Astor's recollections of the film, 3 movie reviews, and 4 critical analyses. There is a bit about an abortive stage play and the legal challenges over "The Adventures of Sam Spade" radio show. There is a list of selected publications of "The Maltese Falcon" in the back of the book as well as an index.
No Question Left Unanswered.......2006-06-08
I love the story of THE MALTESE FALCON, not only as it is told in Hammett's novel but also as it is portrayed in John Huston's movie. I can never read enough about Dashiell Hammett, Joseph Shaw, Humphrey Bogart, Peter Lorre, Gladys George, Sydney Greenstreet, Elisha Cook Jr., Mary Astor, Barton MacLane, Robert and William Pinkerton, John Huston, Lillian Hellman, the Knights of Malta, BLACK MASK, San Francisco after World War I and Raymond Chandler.
This book has enough anecdotes and background material to satisfy even the most ardent enthusiast. My own favorite piece is an account by Mary Astor of her experiences while filming for her role as Brigid O'Shaughnessy in the 1941 version of THE MALTESE FALCON.
A Rare Treat For The Fan Of Sam Spade.......2006-06-06
DISCOVERING THE MALTESE FALCON AND SAM SPADE is the complete book for the fan of Sam Spade in both film and fiction. Fortunately, a very detailed index is provided which allows the reader to choose from among an array of tantalizing topics.The latter includes an account of Dashiell Hammett's days as a Pinkerton detective as well as his work for BLACK MASK. The author also gives us much information about THE MALTESE FALCON in the movies and on stage and radio.The book represents an admirable effort by Layman and it will be enjoyed by anyone captivated by the lure of this enduring tale.
Dashiell Hammett.......2005-10-27
Dashiel Hammett is one of my favorite authors, I have all of his stories, including a couple of biographies. I'm also a fan of Noir stories and movies. This is a great book to add to my collection.
A "must-read" for mystery movie trivia buffs .......2005-10-07
Discovering The Maltese Falcon And Sam Spade is a tribute to the novel by Dashiell Hammett featuring the hardboiled detective Sam Spade and his involvement in the doomed quest for a mysterious artifact, as well as the three film noir movies based from it including the classic that made Humphrey Bogart a star. Chapters tell of Hammett's days as a detective, his publication in pulps, the making of the classic novel, critical views of the movies, the reverberations of The Maltese Falcon in popular culture, and much more.

Customer Reviews:
THE MUST-HAVE OF ITS FIELD.......2002-01-16
Every field has its classic work, and this is it for brass instruments. Not definitive, because nothing could be, but the linch-pin of the library as far as brasswind instruments go.
Great book for brass history.......2000-04-02
When I ordered this book I was expecting something that closely followed the form Baines had used in his Woodwind Instruments and Their History. This was not to be the case. Instead, it is a detailed history of the brass family from prehistoric time to the modern valved era. This is not quite as exhaustive of a book as I was looking for (something that dealt with modern valved brass). With all that said it is still a marvelous book and full of usefull information.
Book Description
This superior study by a leading authority on woodwind instruments is considered the definitive work on the subject, combining a history of woodwinds with detailed descriptions and photographs of the various instruments in use today. Foreword by Sir Adrian Boult. Glossary. Appendixes. Includes 34 halftones, 41 line illustrations, 25 musical examples and 16 fingering charts.
Customer Reviews:
Wonderful book over all types of wind instruments!.......2000-04-02
This is one of the best books that I have ever seen written on this subject. It was this book that got me really hooked on the possibilities that exist within the woodwind section. I particularly enjoy some of the time spent on the more obscure members (e.g. sarrusophone). The only thing that one may say it lacks is a more comprehensive section on the saxophone which is grouped as an exotic form of the clarinet. All in all this is a great book and a must have for all musicians.

serious omissions........2002-08-30
Tony Coe,s picture is on the cover yet there is nothing inside about this ex Clarke-Boland sideman who was the first non American to win the Jazzpar("Jazz Nobel") prize and
played the tenor sax solo on most of the Pink Panther films
plus plus.Also missing is British Nigel Hitchcock who can
blow anyone away.
Although an acceptable coffee table book,
it is defective for the above omissions plus.
Perhaps it,s all down to the well known British cronyism!
masters of jazz saxophones minus one.......2001-12-19
good photos, good write-ups and pretty extensive, but while including many young, up-and-coming players, it neglects to mention one, who is hardly "up-and-coming" any more and most certainly among the most important modern players, namely, Kenny Garrett. Having been playing since he was a teen with the Duke Elington Orchestra, he moved on to the likes of Art Blakey, Woody Shaw, Freddie Hubbard and Miles Davis before going out on his own. His albums have gained world wide acclaim (Pursuance, i believe, got best album one year in Down Beat). Most important is the fact that practically every alto player these days is trying to sound like him. For that kind of impact he should at least be mentioned.

Book Description
This guide, written by one of the foremost interpreters of early clarinet music, is intended for all clarinetists with a desire to investigate music of earlier periods. It contains practical help on both the acquisition and playing of historical clarinets, while performers on modern instruments will find much advice on style, approach and techniques, which combine to make up a well-grounded, period interpretation. Most importantly, case studies that include the music of Handel, Mozart and Brahms help recreate performances as close as possible to the composer's original intention.
Book Description
The Eloquent Oboe is a history of the hautboy, the oboe of the Baroque period. It reflects recent interest in this instrument, which was the first of the woodwinds to join with strings in creating the new orchestra, and had by the end of the 20th century again become a regular presence on the concert scene. Between 1640 and 1760 this type of oboe underwent dramatic changes in both function and physical form, and the majority of its solo and chamber repertoire appeared. Haynes examines in detail the hautboy's structure, its players, makers, and composers, issues of performing style and period techniques, how and where the instrument was played, and who listened to it.
Book Description
This book tells the story of the flute in the musical life of Europe and North America from the twelfth century to the present day. It is the first history to illustrate the relationship that has bound the instrument, its music, and performance technique together through eight centuries of shifting musical tastes and practices. In a comprehensive and authoritative account of the flute's development, Ardal Powell takes full account of recent research: on military flutes and fifes of the fifteenth century, the renaissance consort flute, baroque and classical instruments, mechanically advanced nineteenth-century designs by Theobald Boehm and others, and further innovations that led to the modern flute. All these transformations are related to revolutions in playing style and repertoire, in the lives of flute players and makers, and in the uses of the instrument to play military, religious, consort, solo, chamber, opera, symphony, jazz, popular, and flute band music. For the first time the role of amateur flutists receives due consideration alongside the influence of famous players and teachers. The ultimate guide to the heritage of the flute, this volume will delight both those who play the flute and those who love its music
Customer Reviews:
Well researched and presented but lacking certain topics........2006-12-19
A thoughtful, thorough history of the flute. Perhaps a little too narrowly focussed, as the flute's history included relevant interactions with other woodwinds, none of which are mentioned. Does not say enough about the flute after 1960, and could use an expansion of the material on such topics as the pccolo, alto and bass flutes--this is a serious deficiency. Not quite as thoroughly referenced as other volumes in this series, but generally this meets an adequate scholarly standard. There are some formal idiosyncracies which the author accepts. Despite its weaknesses, this is the current "definitive" history of the flute. Well recommended, and not too costly!

Book Description
Everything you ever wanted to know about the cult BBC Television series Doctor Who which celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2003. On its first publication, The Television Companion was hailed as possibly the best guide ever to the BBC's cult science fiction show Doctor Who. Now re-issued in a revised and updated edition, the book remains the definitive guide to the television worlds and adventures of the Doctor and his companions. Every story is covered in depth in all aspects of production, including plot details, cast and crew lists, episode endings, transmission dates, memorable quotes and popular myths. In addition there is a comprehensive analysis of every adventure, utilising reviews both contemporary and retrospective from a wide variety of sources. This book is the essential companion for every trip you will ever take into the TV universe of Doctor Who.

Simply the best.......2004-05-06
I remember stumbling onto this book while walking through Barnes and Noble, and I immediately got it. It is the coolest book ever in regards to Doctor Who, all sorts of information and tidbits that most people never knew is included along with various other details and analyses about the adventures that have been shown during the show's long history on television.
if you are a fan of Doctor, get this book. you'll love it. it may even help inspire you to write your own reviews for some of your favorite and not so favorite Doctor Who adventures.
Excellent Doctor Who episode guide.......2003-12-17
If you're looking for a 'Doctor Who' episode guide, then you can stop looking as this is by far the best book you can buy about the television series. It's a revised and updated version of the book that was previously released as an official volume from BBC Books some years ago. It contains a synopsis of each story as well as interesting behind-the-scenes details and viewer/fan reaction and opinion. The latter is my favourite part as I find episode guides that steer clear of including opinions of stories to be as dry and boring as dust.
This updated volume also covers appearances of the Doctor and friends on television outside of the series proper, including the K-9 spin-off pilot 'K-9 And Company' and charity specials such as the very entertaining 'The Curse Of Fatal Death' which starred Rowan Atkinson, Richard E. Grant, Jim Broadbent, Hugh Grant and Joanna Lumley as the Doctor. The coverage for these stories isn't as in-depth as the television series, but it's good to see them featured in this book.
This is an essential purchase for any Doctor Who fan. For coverage of the spin-off books and audio stories, you can also find Lars Pearson's 'I, Who' series elsewhere on Amazon.

All About All The Companions.......2004-04-26
I usually don't buy books about shows or movies but this week I did pick up the book COMPANIONS by David J. Howe and Mark Stammers.
This book gives the histories of all of the Doctor's companions from the first episode through the novels written after the shows termination. It does not include the new movie but it does mention some of the other post Doctor productions. At the end is a listing of all of the actors and actresses and what they have done in addition to Doctor Who.
Each character and actor and actress is detailed. See how extra players became companions (like Ian Marter and Nicholas Courtney), bit players became the Doctor (Colin Baker, but at least he was always a Gallifreyan) and how one companion died, co-created Upstairs-Downstairs and then returned as a villain (Jean Marsh). You will also learn some of the oddities like how Jo Grant (Katy Manning) tried to escape her Doctor Who heritage by posing nude with a Dalek (or how she appeared in another production with Colin Baker). I was just reminded of Jo Grant by a fiddler on Lord of the Dance who bears an amazing likeness.
Whatever your interest and whoever is your favorite, this book will tell you all you want to know, whether it is what the annoying Adric has been doing since wiping out the dinosaurs or just where did Mel come into the picture?
Everyone needs a companion-even a Time Lord.......2002-03-25
After writing about the background on Doctor Who, the stories, and the Monsters, what could be better than a book totally devoted to the companions, written by two-thirds of the Howe-Stammers-Walker team? It's a must-have for any Who fan, I'll tell you.
Be it for muscle for the elderly Doctors or lovely babes for all of them, the companions played a huge part in the sci-fi series. Fans of the series could discuss who was their favourite companion in addition to favourite Doctor, season, story, etc.
Here's my take on some aspects of companions that readers of this review who already have this book may have formulated for themselves. The long-time companions are the ones who'll be remembered the most, and they are normally associated with a single Doctor. These are Ian and Barbara (1st Doctor), Jamie (2nd Doctor), The Brigadier and Jo Grant (3rd Doctor), Sarah Jane (4th Doctor), Tegan (5th Doctor), Peri (6th Doctor), and Ace (7th Doctor). The Brigadier is a remarkable exception in that he later became a recurring companion from Mawdryn Undead.
Some of them served as transition companions, spanning Doctors, or serving for a short time. As a result, their tenure was either short or insignificant in terms of the series. Dodo and Steven (1st Doctor), Harry (4th Doctor), Liz (3rd Doctor), and Mel (6th and 7th Doctors) were examples. Others had very short fates or in the case of the third one on this list, due to a quirk of fate: Katarina and Sarah Kingdom (1st Doctor), and Kamelion (5th Doctor).
The other thing one learns about the book was how the BBC dispensed with companions. Jackie Lane (Dodo), Peter Purves (Steven), and Michael Craze (Ben), for example, were just told, "We don't need you anymore. This will be your last episode," and they had no say in the matter. That's one of the things I hate about the BBC--they seem to treat their actors callously, like disposable razors. After a few shaves, toss them in a waste basket. It seems that the best way to leave is to plan to leave and tell the Beeb so it won't be such a big deal. William Russell (Ian), Jacqueline Hill (Barbara), Anneke Wills (Polly), and Katy Manning (Jo) did this.
Many suffered because their characters didn't develop overtime, which is too bad, because they were likable and could've been kept on. Nyssa is the prime example of this, but maybe it's because I'm biased in her favour. This may also be because three in the TARDIS may have resulted in one of them not getting a fair share of lines. One or two is an ideal number of companions per TARDIS.
The colour pictures of the ladies are quite a pleasure, especially Katy Manning (Jo) with the Dalek, Deborah Watling (Victoria) and Nicola Bryant (Peri) in their bikinis.
Another feature is the TARDIS log statistics for each companion, listing their origin, likes, dislikes, reasons for joining the Doctor, and for the women, scream factor. Victoria, Jo, and Sarah Jane scored high on that last.
So, who are my all-time favorite companions? Jo Grant, the Brigadier, Nyssa, Romana I, Sergeant Benton, Ian, Barbara, Liz, Melanie, and Ace, in that order. In presenting this compendium on the Doctor's companions, Howe and Stammers do a job that's bang-on.
P.S. I wonder if the clumsy schmerd who gave the Australian Tegan a last name that was a Yugoslavian first name is still doing his penance.
