Review title: A personal take on an important time
Product review: The black-banning of screenwriters in the post-war age was a dark time in America's history, and Lardner was caught up in the middle of it. This book isn't so much a "let's set the record straight for once and for all" - it's a recollection of a memories and anecdotes. While I would have preferred something more hard-hitting and decisive, I enjoy any book that deals with this period, especially if it's by someone who was there. You still have to figure in the hidden agendas of people who write memoirs like this but nevertheless, this is still a worthwhile read. Recommended.
