A bona fide tough guy with soulful eyes and a laconic style, Robert Mitchum was one of Hollywood's best-loved actors, star of such moody classics as Out of the Past, Night of the Hunter and Cape Fear. But Mitchum was one of the few Hollywood icons whose real-life exploits were yet more compelling than his on-screen persona. A hobo in the Depression, he fell into movie acting after stints as a boxer, a beach bum and a songwriter. Despite early Hollywood successes, he was famously busted on a narcotics rap. But even prison couldn't tame Mitchum's taste for lving on the wild side, and he remained an unrepentant misbehaver until the end of his days. Now Lee Server offers the definitive life story of a man who redefined cinematic cool.

TIGERS are one of the most beautiful and mysterious creatures on Earth. Their name alone evokes a sense of strength, danger, and savagery. Through many centuries, humans have been fascinated by them--the largest of the great cats. Once roaming freely throughout Asia and into Africa, the world's population of wild tigers has declined to only slightly more than 5,000 due to the enormous destruction of wild places over the past hundred years. Watch and learn as the tiger stalks, chases, and attacks its prey. Gentler moments, such as the playful antics of young cubs under the watchful protection of their mothers, are also included. Entertaining and informative, TIGERS is just one title from the series Animals in the Wild. Anyone seeking a better understanding of the animal kingdom, especially these majestic creatures, will enjoy this book and the entire series. Each title in this series includes color photos throughout, and back matter including: an index and further reading lists for books and internet resources. Educational Videos are offered in the back through the use of QR codes, that, when scanned, takes the student to an online video showing a video relating to the book topic.
