"Barry's life is a virtual history of the twentieth century...

-Martin Landau, from the Foreword

REMEMBER WITH ADVANTAGES
Chasing 'The Fugitive' and Other Stories from an Actor's Life

By Barry Morse
With Anthony Wynn and Robert E. Wood


Published by McFarland and Company, ISBN 978-0-7864-2771-0, in 2007, the incredible theatrical memoir Remember With Advantages is available through all major booksellers including Amazon websites in the USA, Canada and United Kingdom. For quick delivery in North America, it is recommended you purchase the book directly from the publisher, McFarland and Company. For rapid delivery in the UK and throughout Europe, order through Eurospan, our European book distributor.

Remember with Advantages details the extraordinary journey of performer Barry Morse. He candidly relates his childhood as a Cockney boy in the East End of London and his win, against all odds, of a full scholarship to the famed Royal Academy of Dramatic Art at the age of 15. He describes how this unlikely beginning propelled him into an international career on stage and screen, including starring roles on Broadway, London's West End, and in television series such as The Fugitive, Space: 1999, and The Winds of War. He crosses paths with numerous notable figures along the way, including George Bernard Shaw, Noel Coward, Peter Cushing, Alfred Hitchcock, David Janssen, Robert Mitchum, and many others. One of the most versatile pros in show business, his book is more than just a memoir; it is a wealth of theatrical history and stands as testament to an era which is gone forever. The Foreword to the book is written by Academy Award-winning actor Martin Landau.



"Morse's stories of his early years as an actor make this book unique...
his experiences are fascinating and full of details... valuable insight
into the profession along with a modern history of theatre and how it
has changed in the last century."
-VOYA magazine review
