One of the great screen idols of the Golden Age of Hollywood was an Australian. This is the first biography to tell Errol Flynn's full story, from his unusual childhood in Tasmania to his celebrity lifestyle, and his tragic end.

The handsome, swashbuckling actor Errol Flynn was one of the first great screen idols of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Born in Tasmania, he attended Shore in Sydney, and as a young man sought his fortune in the brutal colony of New Guinea. He was talent-spotted by Warner Bros while acting in the UK, and went on to find fame and fortune in lead roles in Hollywood blockbuster films such as Captain Blood (1935), The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936) and Robin Hood (1938).
