A New Charlie Chan book to be released!

A new book, "The Charlie Chan Films," by James L. Neibauer, is scheduled for release on May 1. What promises to be interesting difference from previous books about the Chan films will be the inclusion of a number of potentially unique insights which were gleaned from interviews of Mantan Moreland conducted by the author in the early 1970s.



It's always a pleasure to welcome the addition of another Charlie Chan-related book to our Chan library! Please keep an eye out for this one at Amazon, etc., as May 1 draws approaches!

Sincerely,
Rush Glick

I hope he will include the Chinese productions.

Hi, Paul!

I agree, that would be great information to include, but I am pretty certain that the book is covering the Charlie Chan film series proper.

Sincerely,
Rush

Nice! I see from Amazon.com that Mr. Neibaur has written a multitude of books on other topics, like: Charlie Chaplin, W.C. Fields, Arbuckle & Keaton, Jerry Lewis, Bob Hope, Elvis. Should be good!

I agree, it would be exciting if he included the Chinese films. I actually have been trying to get some of my Chinese-American friends to see if they can locate some. However, so far no luck.

Another great addition to America's favorite detective! TXS Lou

Looking forward to it.

He is much more sympathetic to the Monogram Chans than Ken Hanke. He posted his chapter on The Trap to FB.
