Review:
“A ‘City of Nets’ is what Mr. Friedrich calls Hollywood in the title of his new social history. . . . Mr. Friedrich’s intelligent prose makes for fascinating reading.” (New York Times Book Review)
“What happened in these 10 years is as rich and colorful a story as can be imagined and Friedrich has more than done it justice . . . in a narrative that is often funny and remarkably even-handed--a must for movie buffs and a rewarding read for everyone else.” (Publishers Weekly)
