Spencer Tracy_ A Biography - James C. Curtis [596]
Swindell, Larry. Spencer Tracy. Cleveland: NAL/World, 1969. The first book-length Tracy biography, admirably written yet sketchy in places, due, no doubt, to the tight deadline on which the book was produced. Nevertheless, Swindell’s book has been the gold standard on Tracy for over forty years.
