"...the second edition of Kong Unmade was so huge that it had to be split into two volumes! This revised and expanded edition not only revisits the original chapters with new information but contains over a dozen new entries. From 1931's 'Creation' to 1958's 'King Kong vs. Frankenstein', this book covers uncompleted projects related to the original 'King Kong' including sequels like 'The 8th wonder'. 'Tarzan vs. King Kong', and 'The New Adventures of King Kong'. Speaking of what's new, this tome has been expanded to cover related projects like Merian Cooper's 'War Eagles'. Ray Harryhausen's 'Evolution', and Charles Gemora's unmade ape movies like 'The Big Thaw and the 'Lady and the Gorilla' to name only a few. Add to this lost films like 'Isle of Sunken Gold', a 1927 silent film featuring an ape called Kong six years before the original, and Robert Armstrong's first tussle with a big gorilla in the same year's 'The Leopard Lady'..." --Page [4] of cover.
