Boating with Bogart by Gloria Stuart
Robin Price
1993
MINIATURE BOOKS This is a witty account from 1938 when four couples rented a yacht to sail to Santa Catalina Island over Labor Day weekend. At the time, Gloria Stuart was a leading lady at 20th Century Fox Studios. Other crew members were Humphrey Bogart and his wife in 1938, Mayo Methot. It was a fun-filled voyage on the former yacht of John Barrymore which had a sail area of 4,600 square feet. In February 1998, Gloria Stuart was nominated for an Academy Award for her role as a senior survivor of the TITANIC -- a memorable performance. She loves the book arts and wrote this truly fascinating reminiscence of life in Hollywood in a naïve, but dangerous era.
