Written in Stone: Making Cecil B. DeMille's Epic The Ten Commandments
From concept stage through production in Egypt to release of the film, Katherine Orrison carefully recreates the behind-the-scenes story of Cecil B. DeMille's beloved epic. WRITTEN IN STONE treats the reader to an insider's view through the firsthand accounts of the movie's stars (including Martha Scott, Donald Curtis, Yvonne DeCarlo, Joan Woodbury, "Woody" Strode, and Vikki Bakken) and crew (including Henry Wilcoxon, associate producer; Jesse Lasky, Jr., screen writer; and William Sapp, special effects "wizard"). The book is vividly illustrated by the exclusive location photography of Ken Whitmore.
