Know about the book -

The Great War in American and British Cinema, 1918–1938 is written by Ryan Copping and published by Springer Nature. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3030606716 (ISBN 10) and 9783030606718 (ISBN 13).

This book recounts the reception of selected films about the Great War released between 1918 and 1938 in the USA and Great Britain. It discusses the role that popular cinema played in forming and reflecting public opinion about the War and its political and cultural aftermath in both countries. Although the centenary has produced a wide number of studies on the memorialisation of the Great War in Britain and to a lesser degree the USA, none of them focused on audience reception in relation to the Anglo-American ‘circulatory system’ of Trans-Atlantic culture.
