Clint Eastwood A Biography

"Mr. Schickel knows how to use his prodigious knowledge of cinematic history to create portraits of film artists that illuminate their individual talents while at the same time situating them within a social and esthetic context. In this volume, he does an authoritative job of tracing Mr. Eastwood's development as an actor and director, and he also gives the reader a highly nuanced appreciation of Mr. Eastwood's iconographic role as a symbol of American manhood and American individualism as it has evolved in the second half of the 20th century."Schickel, Richard is the author of 'Clint Eastwood A Biography' with ISBN 9780679749912 and ISBN 0679749918.
