The Columbia Story"The Columbia story is a remarkable one-- not just because of the studio's development from truly humble beginnings into a mighty corporate giant, but also because much of it's success was due to the personality and talent-spotting genius of one man: Harry Cohn, it's president for over 30 years. This book is as much a tribute to him as it it to the great catalog of enduring movies made under his all-pervasive guidance."--publisher description. |
