"Out of all the film books I've read this year - and there have been many judging from the sheer amount of book reviews I've posted here in 2015 alone - American Film History: Selected Readings, Origins to 1960 is the clear stand-out amongst them. It's an invaluable tool for those of us who strive to learn more and more about the film industry and classic film every day and I definitely won't be letting this book out of my site for a good long while (I may even stipulate being buried with it in my Last Will & Testament)." (Stardustclassicfilmblog, 17 December 2015)
"Combining compelling personal perspective with rigorous, grounded research, these essays offer smart, sharp insights on American film and capture vividly its multiple resonances across politics, culture, aesthetics."
Dana Polan, Cinema Studies, New York University
"The editors have performed an excellent service to the academic community, gathering together an impressive array of scholarly pieces dealing comprehensively with American film, and its production and reception, from the early days to the present."
Brian Neve, University of Bath
