Book Synopsis: POWER. MONEY. SEX. GLAMOUR. FAME.
That's what Hollywood was to the men and women with the vision to see where the movies were going and the ruthlessness to get there first. They were men like Simon Moses and Fergus Austin -- the rich Jew and ambitious Irish kid -- who parlayed an East Bronx movie house into a multimillion-dollar studio... Women like Claudia Barstow, daughter of the theater's reigning family, who sold herself again and again for a stardom she couldn't keep. They were people who offered celluloid dreams to a loving public... and lived out private nightmares when the cameras stopped.
