Perfect for film enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone who has an interest in the "American New Wave" era of independent filmmaking.
The Little Book of Knowledge series has everything you could want to know about your favorite subjects, all wrapped in a convenient and attractive hardcover graphic novel. Written by experts in the field and drawn by fans who know the material, each Little Book is perfect for the established enthusiast and burgeoning amateur alike.
