Books by Chris Yogerst

Many works of American film history only skim the surface of the 1941 investigation of Hollywood. In Hollywood Hates Hitler!, Chris Yogerst examines the years leading up to and through the Senate Investigation into Motion Picture War Propaganda, detailing isolationist senators' relationship with the America First movement.

This book looks at how the Warner Bros. studio used edgy, stylistic, and brutally honest films to construct a view of America from 1927-1941. Author Chris Yogerst looks at how the Warner Bros. films during this period represented important cultural and social changes-from the coming of sound in film, the Great Depression, the rise of crime, and the increased concern about fascism leading up to World War II.
