Murphy's study covers the whole range of films made during the war and up to 1960, from Unpublished Story, celebrating the stoicism of ordinary people, to the heroics of 1950s films such as The Dam Busters. A final chapter considers the more spectacular and dirtier war in films made since 1960. |

I would also recommend Bibliophile Books - Bargain Books Store where you can find "The Complete Sid James" and "The Peter Cushing Companion", both at £6. Also the biography of Jon Pertwee for a fiver, plus other film-related titles. The Sid James book has details of every one of the astonishuing number of films he made, plus radio, TV etc. A veritable feast.
