In a move unheard of at the time, the U.S. government farmed out its war propaganda effort to Hollywood, allowing these directors the freedom to film in combat zones as never before. They were on the scene at almost every major moment of America's war, shaping the public's collective consciousness of what we've now come to call the good fight. The product of five years of scrupulous archival research, \u003ci\u003eFive Came Back \u003c\/i\u003eprovides a revelatory new understanding of Hollywood's role in the war through the life and work of these five men who chose to go, and who came back.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Harris \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003ePictures at a Revolution: Five Movies and the Birth of the New Hollywood\u003c\/i\u003e, which was a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e notable book of the year and was named one of the ten best nonfiction books of the decade by \u003ci\u003eSalon\u003c\/i\u003e.
