Hearst Over Hollywood: Power, Passion, and Propaganda in the Movies
This may seem a weird reason for a not-great rating, but I there was almost too much information in this book to take in. It was nearly 450 pages (not counting notes) of teeny-tiny print. Because of its title, I expected it to be about Hearst and Hollywood (duh), but it covered every detail of Hearst's life: newspapers, politics, Tammany Hall, and more, down to the most minute detail. It was clearly well researched, but I wish it had been published in two separate volumes.
That said, Joseph Cotten's last name is not Cotton, Ruth Warrick's is not Warwick, and the battle the author refers to on p. 413 was almost certainly a public one, not pubic. Where have all the proofreaders gone?
