A favourable biography of Douglas Fairbanks Jr., reveals him as an international figure who is known as well, in fields far distant from the entertainment world. The early ups and downs in Hollywood, the competition that grew into friendship with his father, are a prelude to the use of his celebrity value for good causes. War and post-war activities were many- including CARE, Korean relief, and U.S.-British relations. The picture, though flattering, polls critics as well as admirers.
