Americanizing the Movies and "Movie-Mad" Audiences, 1910-1914

"Like all of Richard Abel's previous works, this book is characterized by careful marshalling of data and the exploration of new sources. There is a wealth of extremely important, instructive information, and the book provides an encyclopedic treatment of film exhibition in the early 1910s and the key film genres of the period. This will be an important book for film studies."--Lea Jacobs, University of Wisconsin, MadisonRichard Abel is the author of 'Americanizing the Movies and "Movie-Mad" Audiences, 1910-1914', published 2006 under ISBN 9780520247420 and ISBN 0520247426.
