Seller's Description:
Very Good+ 8vo-over 7¾-9¾" tall. 1st Printing. Some scuffing to covers, otherwise about fine, tight, clean. An interesting survey of films depicting and dealing with the subject of violence. Rather weak on pre-1960 films though there certainly were silent films all the way through the 1950s that have memorable violent images, whether in war pictures, film noir, or westerns.
