In this lavishly illustrated monograph, Richard Schickel pays a fitting tribute to one of American cinema s most enduring symbols. From his emergence as a figure to be reckoned with in High Sierra and as private eye Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon in 1941, his iconic performance in Casablanca two years later, to his Oscar-winning role in The African Queen in 1952, Humphrey Bogart ensured his place as a true Hollywood legend. While Bogart s personal charm is to this day unmatched on screen, his private life was the stuff of legend. With Lauren Bacall, he formed one of Hollywood s most celebrated on and off-screen couples. Upon meeting Bacall, Bogart told her, I saw your test. We re going to have a lot of fun together. Following the success of The African Queen, Bogart starred in several other notable movies, including Sabrina, Beat the Devil and The Caine Mutiny.
