JOHN WAYNE ENTERPRISES GIVES GREEN LIGHT FOR FIRST
AUTHORIZED BOOK ON JOHN WAYNE TO POWERHOUSE BOOKSTo be Released Fall 2011, Book to Feature Never-Before-Seen
John Wayne Archived Photo CollectionNewport Beach, California (March 14, 2011): John Wayne Enterprises (JWE), LLC, exclusive owner and licensor of the John Wayne brand, has entered into a publishing agreement with powerHouse Books, the independent publishing house best known for its fine art, documentary, pop culture, fashion, and celebrity books, for the creation of the first-ever authorized John Wayne photo book. The book will be released in fall 2011. The announcement was made today by Ethan Wayne, President of John Wayne Enterprises and son of the late Hollywood legend.
“We knew of powerHouse’s impeccable reputation in the publishing world, but it is Daniel Power and Craig Cohen’s commitment to quality and innovation and their respect for both John Wayne the icon and the man that made it possible for us to enter into this agreement,” said Wayne in making the announcement. “As the first-ever authorized book on John Wayne, my family is looking forward to sharing the myriad of personal memories and never-before-seen images that will comprise this unique representation of our father’s life.”
“Our unique approach to publishing photographic books that celebrate the lives of iconic individuals, books such as Gary Cooper: An Enduring Style, Phil Stern: A Life’s Work, and But That’s Another Story: A Photographic Retrospective of Milton H. Greene, that have proven our ability to present a rare and intimate glimpse of all facets of the person, not just the persona they embodied,” said Daniel Power, founder and CEO, powerHouse Books.
“We are grateful for the trust the family has bestowed on us and look forward to working with John Wayne Enterprises to bring this unique collection of images from the John Wayne estate to his millions of fans around the world,” added Craig Cohen, Vice President and Executive Publisher, powerHouse Books.
Combining never-before-seen photographs culled from the family’s vast personal archives with images from some of John Wayne’s 175 feature films, the book (as yet untitled) will celebrate the qualities John Wayne embodied. Comments from family members, friends and co-stars will recount first-hand examples of John Wayne’s loyalty, honesty, dependability and courage. Personifying the American spirit, John Wayne was and continues to be a true Hollywood icon.
JWE’s worldwide licensing and promotional partnership programs continue to expand the global awareness of the John Wayne brand. In addition to the organization’s two core licensing programs -- “classic collectibles” targeting adult collectors and John Wayne fans, and the John Wayne “lifestyle program,” which is inspired by John Wayne’s western casual heritage and geared towards the young adult male – JWE also has licensing partnerships in such key categories as novelties, apparel, accessories, home furnishing, interactive, publishing and more. The agreement with powerHouse Books marks the company’s first foray into publishing.

Cette bande dessinée est vraiment un document exceptionnel.
Bravo lasbugas pour avoir découvert ce trésor ! -
A friend just gave me a John Wayne book of his films. Nice book I have a magazine that was printed in the 70's that has a listing and synopsis of all his films with pics this adds to it. Mark Ricci and two other authors wrote the book.

I have 2 copies of that book. One was published in the early 70's and only covered up to Rio Lobo. My other copy is a newer addition and contains all his films. A good book to have.

Jh, yes it is a good book, mine is now falling apart
but I still use it as a good reference point, for this forum.Here is our dedicated thread on
Duke's BooksTHE COMPLETE FILMS OF JOHN WAYNE, by Zmiewsky and Ricci
First edition done in 1970, when the True Grit Oscar brought a new interest to JW’s career, next edition (as “The COMPLETE Films of…”) came after his death. Probably the first time somebody took the time to count the films and assemble stills to each and every one of them. Still considered to be the definite list – although in the meantime many silent films in which JW participated, sometimes as a crowd extra – aren’t mentioned here.
If you are looking for John Wayne films this is the book to have. It tells what the film is about, who also starred in and what year it was made. It also has plenty of photos to help you recognize what movie it is and if it is the one you are looking for. The book has some interesting facts about some of the movies -
The Complete Films of John Wayne by Mark Ricci is probably one of the best John Wayne filmography books available, and I think second only to Fred Landesman's "John Wayne Filmography" book. Both are indispensable when researching John Wayne's career.

A fun companion book to those is Allan Eyles' "John Wayne and the Movies".

So looking forward to this book being published by the estate of JW. I have high hopes that we will get a rare insight into the Big fellow, and see photo's that have not been seen before. Perhaps an opportunity to also answer alot of the garbage that has been written over the years. I don't think it is going to be that kind of book though. What hopes do others have for this book? Does anyone know the date it is to be release, I have various dates but would like a definitive one? Any information or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
