While the Three Stooges were the longest-active and most productive comedy team in Hollywood, their artistic height coincided with the years Curly was with them, from 1932 to 1946. To their fans, Curly stands out as the zaniest of the three. Famous for his high-pitched voice, his “n’yuk-n’yuk-n’yuk” and “why, soitenly,” and his astonishing athleticism, Curly was a true natural, an untrained actor with a knack for improvisation. Yet for decades, little was known about his personal life. Then, in 1985, Joan Howard Maurer, Curly’s niece, published this definitive biography. When she first set out to write the book, there was almost no biographical information available about Curly. So she spoke at length to his relatives, friends, and colleagues. She amassed a wealth of Curly memorabilia, a mixture of written material and rare photographs of Curly’s family, films, and personal life. In Curly: An Illustrated Biography of the Superstooge, she put it all together to come up with the first and only in-depth look at this crazy comedic genius. She included plenty of intimate details about his astonishing relationship with his mother, his marriages, and his interactions with his daughters and friends. Despite its excellence as a well-rounded portrait of the most unpredictable—and most popular—Stooge, Curly has long been out of print. This new edition of a timeless classic, now updated with previously unpublished facts, is sure to be appreciated by Three Stooges fans new and old.
This is a new release of the original 1954 edition.

The stories and incidents in this book reflect the trends and attitudes of the times. 1959 to 1973 and the camaraderie that existed between firemen and policemen. There is a brief glimpse of some of the fires and incidents that put their lives in jeopardy. Terminology and training are incorporated however this book is designed to show you the "funny side" of fire fighting and how they physically and emotionally got through these crises, the stress breakers and laughter that helped them keep their sanity. Equipment and techniques have changed with time. They now have Scott Air Packs instead of WWII Puke Masks, helmets with shields to protect the face. High tech communication systems and they no longer have the aerial ladder designed as it was then. 911 didn't exist at that time, only the fire alarm box system of the 18th century. Equipment and techniques have changed with time. Some things never change however...the fire and emergency personnel that SAVES LIVES.

This book is about a little boy who came into the world with a very special gift, an awesome knowledge of the Universe and the desire to help mankind. At the age of two he began telling us about spirits from the other side, about God, the angels, reincarnation, and that the greatest of these is love. He Is the "Receiver."
