In The Shadows of Giants - Michael Bayouth - Bog

- True Stories From The Son of a Hollywood Stuntman

Bag om In The Shadows of Giants

From the Hatari movie set with John Wayne on the Serengeti in Africa to the palimony trial of Lee Marvin in LA, In the Shadows of Giants combines humor and true-life stories from the author of Nine Degrees North, Michael Bayouth. His stuntman father doubled for such greats as John Wayne, Dean Martin and Clark Gable and has led a life few could believe. Like his father, Michael has his share of stories too: Like the time he sketched a deadly Mob figure at a posh Beverly Hills restaurant as an undercover artist or when his mom caught on fire in the kitchen and his dad saved her life like it was all in a days work. Or who could forget stunt horses being paraded through the living room to settle a drunken bet? To relay these stories, one would think, you just can't write this stuff! But they actually happened. It's a rough, tough roundup of what went down growing up in a Hollywood family. So tie up your horse, find a seat at the campfire, and take it easy on the beans.
