Description ▲

The drama, imagery and fantasy of 1940s films was enlisted to inspire the US war effort during World War II. This book looks at the propaganda, politics and persuasion that conspired to produce memorable movies such as "Casablanca", and the thankfully forgotten "Hillbilly Blitzkreig".
