Fourteen years ago, Bruce Campbell gifted the world with an excellent memoir titled If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B-Movie Actor, which covered his life and career from childhood to 2002. In the time since that book came out, Campbell has been a very busy guy, racking up dozens of film acting credits while also doing some directing and starring in several seasons of television shows. Now he has decided it's about time that he catch us up on the events of the ensuing years and let us know how it all looked from his perspective.

On August 8, 2017, Thomas Dunne Books will be publishing Campbell's new memoir Hail to the Chin: Further Confessions of a B-Movie Actor.

It’s been 15 years since his first memoir but Bruce is still living the dream as a "B" movie king in an "A" movie world.

Bruce Campbell makes his triumphant return from where he left off in If Chins Could Kill with further hilarious, gut-wrenchingly honest confessions.

Bruce brings us through his life in the decade since his first memoir and his roles as varied as they are numerous – from his roles in the Spider-Man movies to his self-referential My Name is Bruce to his role on #1 show Burn Notice and his new STARZ hit series Ash vs Evil Dead.

Over the last 15 years, Bruce has become a regular on the Wizard World convention circuit, has created his @GroovyBruce twitter account with over 400,000 followers and a Facebook page with almost 250,000 likes. His profile and reach is lightyears beyond where it was for Chins. Check him out at www.Bruce-Campbell.com.

Hail to the Chin will be bursting with pictures and the signature humor that Bruce brought to If Chins Could Kill and will be devoured by his legions of fans across the country.

If you enjoyed If Chins Could Kill, you'll probably want to head over to Amazon and get in a pre-order of Hail to the Chin. If you're a Campbell fan who hasn't read If Chins Could Kill yet, you can rectify that on Amazon as well.
