520    Richard Burton, Richard Harris, Peter O'Toole, and Oliver 
       Reed: On screen they were stars, off screen they were 
       legends. This is the story of drunken binges of near 
       biblical proportions, parties and orgies, broken marriages,
       riots, and wanton sexual conquests--indeed, acts so 
       outrageous that if ordinary mortals had perpetrated them 
       they would have ended up in jail. They got away with the 
       kind of behavior that today's film stars could scarcely 
       dream of, because of their mercurial acting talent and 
       because the press and public loved them. They were truly 
       the last of a breed. This is a celebratory catalogue of 
       their miscreant deeds, a greatest-hits package of their 
       most breathtakingly outrageous behavior, told with humor 
       and affection. You can't help but enjoy it--after all, 
       they certainly did.--From publisher description.
