Errol Flynn in Northampton
This book pretty much picks up where YOUNG ERROL FLYNN leaves off, and sets straight the when,
where, and how of Flynn's stay in England, particularly in Northampton.
Author Gerry Connelly suggests that Flynn had toured Europe prior to joining the
Northampton Repertory Players in January 1934, during which time he may have first
met French actress Lili Damita (who was to become his first wife).
There is a fascinating revelation upon reading this book that Flynn's lifestyle as
recounted in ERROL FLYNN: A MEMOIR had already
become established by Northampton. This of course inspires one to ask the
question: "How
did he EVER end up married???"

As well as his time in Northampton, this 2nd edition covers all of Errol's
movements in Britain and Europe in 1933 and 1934, including a stint at the Malvern
Festival (the last word on whether he'd ever played London's West End). The
author has also found film and stage appearances revealed in no other publication,
including a performance in Scotland.

- £9.95 in Great Britain
- £15 outside Great Britain
- $25.00 USA (each additional copy in order is
US$16.00)
