What if the legendary director who invented Hollywood and the Biblical epic offered you his personal secrets to great achievement? Ready When You Are: Cecil B.

DeMille showed me how to put a lot of money up on the big screen and then make the studios pay for it."

He has had great commercial success without losing his personal vision or compromising his integrity." In his latest book, comparable to such classics as The 7 Habits of Highly-Effective People, Think and Grow Rich, and Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun, author Robert Hammond reveals C.B. DeMille's secret strategies to achieve a life of career success and personal fulfillment.

DeMille's Biblical epics as well as recently-discovered articles on filmmaking written by DeMille himself. |
