Description

"The Beauty of the Beasts" is a chronicle of many years Ralph Helfer spent as a Hollywood animal behaviourist, and is full of behind-the-scenes accounts of the many television programs and films in which Helfer's animals appeared, including "Charlie's Angels" and "The Ten Commandments", and the stars he and his animals worked with such as Elvis Presley, Clint Eastwood, and Marilyn Monroe. But this is more than a story of the famous, both four and two-legged - it's also about the important roles animals play in our lives, and how much less human we would be without them.
