British banker, film fanatic, and “enthusiastic writer” Steve Aldous, who previously penned the definitive history of Ernest Tidyman’s private eye, John Shaft, is now turning his attention to another fictional shamus with a devoted following: Harry Orwell, played in the 1974-1976 ABC-TV series Harry O by David Janssen.
“The book, provisionally titled Harry O: A Viewing Companion, will utilise extensive archival research and provide new detail on the series conception and development and provide an in-depth guide to the two pilots and each episode broadcast in the series’ two transmitted seasons,” Aldous explains on his Web site. “The issues surrounding shooting the series on location away from Los Angeles, which necessitated production relocating from San Diego to L.A. midway through the first season, will be covered too.” Joining him to compose this study will be Gary Gillies, who runs the Harry O Facebook page.
McFarland & Company is expected to bring their finished product to market. No publication date has yet been announced.

If McFarland is publishing it, then it's likely gong to be priced outrageously high for the library market.
