Description: "As Time Goes By - A Novel of Casablanca" - by Michael Walsh - 1st EDITION 1st PRINT Hardcover w/Dustjacket - Published in 1998 by Warner Books - 420 pages - both book and DJ are in NEAR MINT condition. Didn't you always want to know what happens right after Casablanca's Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) walks off with Capain Louis Renault (Claude Rains) into the mist? In this novel those questions are answered. This book is a clever takeoff on the classic tale, with less romance but much more action. As Time Goes By is both a prequel and a sequel, fleshing out Rick's mysterious life by flashing back to his 1930s New York gangland past and taking us with him, Ilsa, and Sam the piano man as they plot to kill Reinhard Heydrich, the Hangman of Prague. Rick Blaine started out as Yitzik Baline, who learned to shoot in the booze-fueled underworld of Tick-Tock Shapiro and Dion O'Hanlon. A fracas that made Walter Winchell's column explains why Rick wound up in the Casablanca gin joint. Ilsa undertakes to seduce Heydrich -- chastely, if at all possible -- and set him up for the kill. (He was the only top Nazi the Allies bumped off.) Remember, this book is in NEAR MINT condition. No collection of Casablanca items is complete without this outstanding book.
