Katharine Hepburn… Sean Connery… James Earl Jones… These Hollywood stars died in their 90s, having enjoyed long, abundant lives. Others weren’t so lucky, and made their departure from the red carpet all too soon. Indeed, many stars have been lost before their time, their lives cut short by accidents, drug overdoses, illnesses, suicides, even murder.Hollywood Stars Who Died Too Young explores the lives and deaths of 30 legends well worth remembering. It answers questions you’ve probably never even considered: Whose funeral was deemed so important that the busiest freeway in America was blocked off? Why were all of Marilyn Monroe’s films banned in Egypt? Which Oscar-winning megastar has an asteroid named after him? Who does Bugs Bunny owe his fast-talking, carrot-chewing traits to? And whose ashes are held inside a giant ornamental Prozac pill?Discover which film Carrie Fisher made a secret cameo in, why someone had to hide in the backseat of the car while Corey Haim was filming License to Drive, and whose co-stars paid tribute to him by getting matching tattoos. Find out who Matthew Perry kissed in a closet before either of them became famous, why Judy Garland was put in the now-iconic blue and white gingham dress in The Wizard of Oz, which rogue had a love child conceived on an overnight train, and why James Dean’s two front teeth were fake.Prepare to be surprised, saddened, enlightened and inspired as you read about the Hollywood stars whose lights still shine bright, even though the credits have rolled.

A collection of recipes for the world’s suavest classic cocktails, inspired by the debonair persona and personal choices of Mr 007 himself.Everyone knows that James Bond prefers an alcoholic drink to a soft drink. In fact, he even goes as far as deriding tea as ‘mud’ and blaming it for the collapse of the British Empire. Although it’s the legendary Vodka Martini that he’s best known for, he also orders many classic cocktails, including an Old-Fashioned, an Americano and a Negroni, all of which appear in this book. Bond also effortlessly creates his own drink in ‘Casino Royale’: ‘Three measures of Gordon’s, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it’s ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel. Got it?’ And so the Vesper was born, to the delight of bar owners across the globe. However, it’s not only cocktails that he’s partial to. Bond orders Scotch and soda 21 times in the books, but he’s also keen on bourbon and a brandy and ginger ale. So why not raise a glass and toast the health of the world’s most-loved, smooth-talking secret agent with one of his favourite drinks.
