Description: Hollywood has long enjoyed a "special relationship" with Israel. This book offers a groundbreaking account of this relationship, both on and off the screen. Tony Shaw and Giora Goodman investigate the many ways in which Hollywood's moguls, directors, and actors have supported or challenged Israel for more than seven decades.
Review Quotes: Combining pioneering research with meticulous scholarship, this wonderful book illuminates an unknown dimension of Hollywood history and the U.S.-Israel "special relationship." With a cast of world-famous actors, mighty moguls, colorful propagandists, and a rabbi to the stars, it's also a hugely entertaining read.--Hugh Wilford, author of America's Great Game: The CIA's Secret Arabists and the Shaping of the Modern Middle East
