Each entry features a detailed episode guide and behind-the-scenes interviews with the actors, writers, producers, and directors who made these shows enduring, action-adventure classics. "A must-read for everyone who loves classic-television crime and drama series. Thoroughly researched, the lively stories behind these four series are as fascinating as they're informative." David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author of First Blood "Men of Action is fascinating and chock full of exciting details about the creation and production of some of the best remembered crime/adventure series of the '60s and '70s. Once you pick this book up, you won't be able to stop." Phoef Sutton, Emmy & Peabody Award Winning TV writer/producer of Cheers and Boston Legal "Men of Action feeds our appetite for intriguing trivia...a must-have for any classic-TV history fan." The Rap Sheet "Robertson has brought back four classic television series in thrilling detail. I know you Men of Action don't read books, but take it from this Man of Action that you'll want to read this one!" Raymond Benson, New York Times bestselling author of six James Bond continuation novels "Pushes all the buttons for classic television fans who like some substance along with their nostalgia. Best of all, perhaps, is a treasure trove of interviews that Robertson has conducted over the years, with stars and guest stars, writers, directors, and others involved in the production of each series. Fans of these shows will find much to enhance their knowledge, while those just approaching them will find themselves drawn into their compelling stories. It's a fun, easy, entertaining read." It's About TV.com "If you're a fan of any of these classic shows - or are just interested in how TV was made in the 60s and 70s - don't miss this book. It's jam-packed with incredible details and quotes from writers, directors, actors, and more." - Jay Faerber, supervising producer of Supergirl "Stylishly written with noirish tones. Robertson explores how innovative these shows were, gives behind the scenes details and defines the history. Insightful and enjoyable."
