From Dead Ends to Cold Warriors
"A specter was haunting mid-twentieth century Hollywood – the specter of the rebellious boy. Peter W.Y. Lee ably shows how US filmmakers of the period created a cast of culturally potent boy characters to arbitrate conflicts of age, gender, race, class, and political ideology at the dawning of the American Century. From Dead Ends to Cold Warriors is required reading for historians of youth, film, and the early Cold War."
Mischa Honeck, author of Our Frontier Is the World, The Boy Scouts in the Age of American Ascendancy
