Clint: A Retrospective - by Richard Schickel (£25)

Introduced by Eastwood, this weighty collection of poster art and on-set photography is one notch better than biography. With insightful writing about his life, it also allows fans a rare glimpse at the tough actor's off-screen persona and candid shots that denote his dedication to film over a 55-year career.
