"Your father is the American Chaplin." - Groucho Marx (speaking to Gary Hall) "Huntz Hall was a complicated person: extremely generous and loving on the one hand, scarily angry and violent on the other....As I get older I understand my father much better-he was emotionally deprived as a kid, and then he was unprepared for fame and money when they arrived in his teenage years. So he didn't have the skills to be a parent. He did the best he could with the emotional equipment he had." - Rev. Gary Hall (Huntz Hall's son) "I was nuts...Actually, I got into worse trouble than Sach...The cops would say to me, 'We don't want to lock you up, Huntz. You lock yourself up.' I'm lucky that I made it this far." - Huntz Hall, Entertainment Weekly interview "Huntz Hall, I loved him. [He] kept us laughing all the time. He was so funny." - Julie Gibson, actress, Bowery Buckaroos Behind Sach: The Huntz Hall Story presents the life of the man who made us laugh with his unforgettable and unique persona of Horace DeBussy Jones, best known as "Sach." This is the story of Huntz Hall, who played the zany character in forty-eight Bowery Boys motion pictures from the 1946 thru 1958. Perhaps some day Hall will be lauded as surely a comic genius as Chaplin. This biography is based upon never before revealed information provided by his only son. It offers a respectful portrait and appreciation of Hall's personal life and an examination of the comedy moments of his beloved Sach. Jim Manago has authored Love Is the Reason for It All: The Shirley Booth Story (BearManor Media, 2008) and For Bill, His Pinup Girl: The Shirley Booth and Bill Baker Story (Jim and Donna Manago Books, 2010). He holds a Master's degree in Cinema Studies from the College of Staten Island/City University of New York.

In 1935 Sidney Kingsley's play about streetwise urban kids, Dead End, opened on Broadway featuring 14 adolescent actors. For two years on Broadway and then on tour, Kingsley's play delivered its social commentary contrasting affluent neighborhoods and tenement slums on New York City's East River. The film industry picked up the story and in 1937 released Dead End which spawned 23 more years of films and serials featuring the Dead End Kids and their offshoots, Little Tough Guys, East Side Kids and the Bowery Boys. This chronicle follows the street kids through the many assorted incarnations, shifting casts and studios. First the reader is introduced to how the original play and film came about. A cast list and analysis of each production follows. For the major players, the author provides a biography and filmography, and several of these entries include a tribute from a friend or family member. Brief biographical profiles are given for other actors. Sketches of the "Dead End" revivals of 1978 and 2005 follow.

This book was released on 2010. Boerne available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In 1849, German "Freethinkers" had been dreaming of a communal utopia, free from oppression by church and state. They settled in Texas on the Cibolo Creek, where Native Americans and Spanish explorers had gone before them. The experiment evolved into a frontier outpost, a stage stop, a health spa, a railhead, a small village, a brief chapter in the Civil War, and a farm and ranch community. Boerne is now a tourist destination and a lovely place to live. This collection of pictures and stories explores what has been amazing, unique, and a little odd about this bend in the Cibolo, as well as the history of local conservation efforts. As the little town of Boerne goes through its inevitable growing pains, it is important to remember its special people and places, and what is worth saving.
