' Describes the history and inspiration behind the book "Early in the 1960s I started writing a book about William Holden.
I admired his acting but I was also interested as he had the reputation of being completely fearless and liking to confront danger.
I didn't realise I could not afford to make a lengthy trip to California.
And gave up the idea of a biography.
Instead I wrote this work of fiction about 'William Beaumont'.
" BOOK: fictional thriller based on the Life of film actor William Holden.
