THIS IS THE HARDBACK EDITION. Thunder was the last silent film for
Lon Chaney. His health was not good during the shoot and for the
first time in his career he held up production while he
recuperated. He plays Grumpy Anderson, a near retirement, old
workhorse of a train engineer. It is said that a piece of
artificial snow, used in the production, lodged in his throat
causing an infection that led to his untimely death at age 47 on
August 26, 1930. Only a few fragments exist. The novel was
published in 1930 in France and has been translated by Eric
McNaughton. "The 1929 audiences were up on their feet and cheering
Chaney at the exciting climax of Thunder." - Chauncey Haines -
