One night. One dance. One love to last a lifetime. AS RUDOLPH VALENTINO FIGHTS FOR HIS LIFE, BARRICADES KEEP THE SWARMING FANS AT BAY. ADORED BY MILLIONS OF WOMEN, BUT LOVED BY ONLY ONE ... WILL SHE BE ABLE TO REACH HIM IN TIME? AUGUST 1916 Fleeing war-ravaged London, Jenny Doyle sets sail for New York. As she draws near the soaring skyscrapers her dreams are dashed when she is sent to work for the wealthy de Saulles family. Known as ‘The Box', their home is Gatsby-like in elegance, yet rife with malice and madness. Only her friendship with dancer Rodolfo offers Jenny a glimpse of escape ... until a tragic day when the household is changed forever. AUGUST 1926 America booms, prohibition rules and one man's movie is breaking box office records. Rodolfo has taken his place on the silver screen as Rudolph Valentino when a chance arises for he and Jenny to meet again. Will the world's most desired film star and his lost love have their Hollywood happy ending, or will tragic echoes of their past thwart them one last time?

Newly expanded and revised edition. One of the most alluring, enigmatic, and simply irresistible movie icons of all time, Rudolph Valentino continues to inspire generation after generation of moviegoers. In Rudolph Valentino, The Silent Idol: His Life in Photographs, author Donna Hill retells the story of Valentino's life using a treasure trove of rare photographs. Drawn from the author's extensive collection and those of generous fellow collectors and archives, most of the images in this volume have not been seen since the 1920's; many have never been released publicly until now. Rudolph Valentino was more than the "sheik" of one of his most famous films. He was more than the legendary star who died at a tragically young age. For long-time fans as well as curious newcomers, these remarkable images - candid snapshots at home, traveling, on film sets - reveal the glamour and charm of the man who continues to beguile and inspire movie lovers to this day.

In this generously illustrated book, world-renowned Yale art historian Robert Farris Thompson gives us the definitive account of tango, "the fabulous dance of the past hundred years–and the most beautiful, in the opinion of Martha Graham.” Thompson traces tango’s evolution in the nineteenth century under European, Andalusian-Gaucho, and African influences through its representations by Hollywood and dramatizations in dance halls throughout the world. He shows us tango not only as brilliant choreography but also as text, music, art, and philosophy of life. Passionately argued and unparalleled in its research, its synthesis, and its depth of understanding, Tango: The Art History of Love is a monumental achievement.

Rudolph Valentino (1895-1926) was an early pop icon and a sex symbol of the 1920s, having starred in several well-known silent films including The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, The Sheik, Blood and Sand, The Eagle, and The Son of the Sheik, and he became known as the “Latin lover” or simply “Valentino.” His sudden death at just 31 years of age unleashed mass hysteria among his female fans and further propelled him into iconic status. This biography of the famous Italian actor, which was originally published in 1926, not long after his untimely death, was written by his business manager and closest friend, George Ullman, providing with the reader with a unique insight into the icon’s life.
