Ellen Terry
by Moira Shearer
A brief account of the life of Ellen Terry, perhaps the most celebrated English actress of the nineteenth century and a member of the talented theatrical Terry family that includes Sir John Gielgud. She joined Henry Irving's Lyceum company in 1878 and played all the major classical and Sheakespearean roles, becoming a revered Victorian icon in spite of having two illegitimate children. Her correspondence with George Bernard Shaw brought her further fame. She died at her Kent farmhouse (now owned by the National Trust) in 1928.
Young Man from the Provinces
by Alan Helms
Gay life in New York City in the 1950s and '60s was an entirely different world from today. Intensely secretive and desperately determined to stay that way, its action took place behind the unmarked doors of bars and in apartments where the shades were always drawn. Underlying the frenetic living and high hilarity was a sense of shame that was inevitable during a time when shock treatment and lobotomies were considered acceptable "cures" for homosexuality. In Young Man from the Provinces, Alan Helms tells his story of those times. Escaping from a painful midwestern adolescence to the scholarly refuge of Columbia University, Alan threw himself headlong into New York's gay world. Denied a Rhodes scholarship because of his sexual orientation, he turned his back on academia and became a successful model and stage actor, moving in glamorous circles whose members included Anthony Perkins, Stephen Sondheim, Marlene Dietrich, Noel Coward, Leonard Bernstein, and Edward Albee. Alan attended glittering parties, traveled around the world with his lover, and spent summers on Fire Island immersed in the company of young, beautiful men. After starting a new life in Boston in the early 1970s, Alan realized that the gay social world was changing drastically and that he was facing middle age by himself. He subsequently battled drug abuse and severe depression, but his biggest battle was his struggle for self-acceptance and his attempt to build a better life. His success helped him remain strong as he faced his mother's death from cancer in the 1980s and the deaths of many of his friends and former lovers from AIDS - more than eighty and still climbing.

Still Me
by Christopher Reeve
With a new Afterword especially for this edition. "A memoir that's outspoken, wise, and tremendously moving. . . . Writing in clean, even matter-of-fact style that renders his words all the more devastating for their lack of bathos, Reeve reveals the intimacies of his plight. . . . No doubt, Reeve is 'still me'--but readers of his beautifully composed book will see that he is now also more--that through nearly unimaginable suffering and effort, he has transformed a charmed life into one blessed to be a true profile in courage."--"Publishers Weekly, " starred review.
