[Three Bad Men]

Thanks Gorch for reviewing the book for Scott.....it was 28 years in the making,. And thanks for your post on the John Wayne Message Board, Dukewayne.com.

 

This is the first book that ever gave credit to a most outstanding, natural actor from his first film, Salute.....he had never acted before. Also, Ward Bond was very well educated. Scott finally puts Ward into a different light than he has been cast in the last 50 years. And he shows how most everything both on and off screen revolved around the three men........not just two. In fact, Ward was a great help in getting Duke from being a singing cowboy type to being the rough and tumble guy we came to love. Ward was that way from the beginning! Also, until his death, Ward spent a good bit more time with Pappy than Duke did. Scott certainly straightened out some well ingrained misconceptions.

 

Thanks again and good job. The book can also be bought from Amazon at a low rate right now with free shipping.....not sure how long that will last. KEITH
