From the back cover...
"Hollywood Dreams For Sale. Dreams have always been Hollywood's product -- and how that magnificent artistic assembly line turned them out in the 1930s and the '40s! Now at last we have the inside story of that wild, wonderful, whacky era, by the men and women who made so many unforgettable celluloid dreams come truer than life on the screen. Here are the laughter and tears, the successes and scandals, the great stars and the little known key figures. Here are these crazy years when anything went -- just as long as it was box office. There was never a place like Hollywood in the golden years -- and never a book as vivid and revealing as this one."
