Re: Chan's Clan - books vs films...

Dear Cannon,

"The Black Camel" is probably my favorite of the Giggers Chan stories. Although the names of the Chan offspring do not really match the names of those in the films, they are consistantly referred to throughout the books. You have probably noted that the Chan's number one son was referred to as Henry in the Biggers books. This was also the name used for this son who appeared briefly in Charlie Chan Carries On." In "Charlie Chan's Greatest Case, this eldest son was called Oswald! Byt the time Keye Luke appears in "Charle Chan in Paris, Charlie Chan's first son is called Lee.

Sincerely,
Rush Glick
