W A Harbinson has researched and reconstructed an extraordinarily vivid portrait of Charles Bronson... as a boy, a man, a film star, and as a heroic cult figure. Here is Bronson, finely drawn in all the colors of his primitive reality. The man who exudes an aura of barely suppressed violence, near-animal sexuality, relentless honesty. Why? Who is he? What is his secret? What is it that men and women, young and old, of all languages, find so fascinating? (This book was published in 1975.)
