Description:
George Lucas is one of the most innovative bigtime players on the movie scene, responsible for the Star Wars films, the Indiana Jones series and more besides.

This is his story.

Reviewer: longplay: Rating:; Review:
An interesting look into the life of one of Hollywood's most reclusive directors. Although he's famous as the writer and director of Star Wars, Lucas's journey to the bigtime started in an unlikely place. The book details his connections to other filmmakers of the time, his rise to fame, his fight to get Star Wars made and the building of Skywalker ranch, amongst other things.
