Very Good copy in an unclipped dustjacket. The making of the WWII bio pic The Valiant Years. Long inscription to Joyce Hall on the half title page by Jack Le Vien. Le Vien joined the U.S. Army in 1941 and was commissioned as a public relations officer. Promoted to lieutenant colonel he became a senior press aide to General Eisenhower, taking part in the North African, Sicilian, Italian and Normandy landings. After the war, Le Vien established his own film and TV production company and was the executive producer of "The Valiant Years" with Richard Burton voicing Churchill's words. The BBC put money into the project and gave Le Vien access to its matchless store of wartime sound recordings.
