Very few people understand the magic of the sea... and very few people ever knew that the world's best known actor Humphrey Bogart spent much of his free time aboard his sailboat SANTANA. Bogie committed many years of study and practice to earn the reputation as one of the most accomplished racers and captains in the area. Fellow sailor Larry Dudley came to be Bogie's friend, cabin mate and confidant during their ten years together sailing and racing off the coast of Southern California. Years into their friendship, Dudley had just finished reading "The African Queen" when he told Bogie he thought there was a part in it for him... a prophetic fit for the man and the movie. These two men shared a love of the ocean and the fine vessels that traveled on the seas. Be it a long race around the islands or at anchor off a pebbled beach, Bogie felt at ease amongst the sailors and had earned their respect on and off the water. He referred to the SANTANA as "the other world" and revealed a side of himself to his sailing friends that no one else knew. "Sailing With Bogie" reveals insights into his wife Lauren Becall, Katherine Hepburn, Jack Warner, John Huston, Sterling Hayden and others.

Humphrey Bogart had crawled up the hard way, leaving behind a childhood without affection for a life as the idol of millions.

With three marriages to his name and a reputation as one of the hardest drinkers in Hollywood, happiness was always fleeting.

Modelling by day and tearing tickets at night, when she was summoned to Hollywood to make a screentest, young Betty Bacall grabbed it with both hands.
