History of the American Cinema: Grand Design: Hollywood as a Modern Business Enterprise, 1930-1939, Vol. 5

Somewhat of a mix of a reference work and a history. Excellent information, and some different information that you won't find elsewhere such as trends in theatre attendance, production costs, etc. Chapters on the technology and making movies as well as the filmmakers and stars. Third volume in a "History of the American Cinema."
