of American history? What do these portrayals of history tell us, not only

about the events they depict but also the time in which they were made?

Each volume in this unique reference series is devoted to a single topic

or key theme in American history, examining 10–12 major motion pictures

or television productions. Substantial essays summarize each film, provide

historical background of the event or period it depicts, and explain how

accurate the film’s depiction is, while also analyzing the cultural context in

which the film was made. A final resources section provides a comprehen-

sive annotated bibliography of print and electronic sources to aid students

and teachers in further research.

The subjects of these Hollywood History volumes were chosen based on

both curriculum relevance and inherent interest. Readers will find a wide

array of subject choices, including American Slavery on Film, the Civil War

on Film, the American West on Film, Vietnam on Film, and the 1960s on

Film. Ideal for school assignments and student research, the length, for-

mat, and subject areas are designed to meet educators’ needs and students’

interests.
