Ebook: Star Wars FAQ: everything left to know about the trilogy that changed the movies: unofficial and unauthorized

"Explores every aspect of the original Star Wars trilogy--Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi--from the books and movies that inspired George Lucas to imagine the Star Wars universe, to early screenplay drafts that were never filmed, to short biographies of the many people who made key contributions to the movies' success. Along the way, it unearths underreported stories and illuminating minutiae often skimmed over or completely ignored in other histories of the legendary film series. Highlights include details about the Star Wars Holiday Special debacle, the Ewok TV movies, the rise of Star Wars fiction and it importance in the revival of the franchise, and the wave of Star Wars imitators and parodies that flooded theaters and TV screens in the late 1970s and early 1980s--along with rare publicity stills and photographs of vintage memorabilia."--Page 4 of cover.
