—This is a nice appreciation of and tribute to Boris Karloff (who was born William Henry Pratt in 1887), assembled by ultra-fan 4SJ AKAman shortly after his passing in 1969. It includes pieces by Vincent Price, Lon Chaney, Christopher Lee, Elsa Lanchester, William Nolan, Ray Bradbury, Robert Bloch, Fritz Lang, George Pal, and many others, though the majority of the prose is by Ackerman and/or reprinted from his seminal magazine, Famous Monsters of Filmland.

“Inside you'll read everything about the man behind the monster, look at a nice photo section, his films. This book brings you everything you want to know about the late and great Boris Karloff. Intriguing read, highly recommended!”
