Here's part of the content - you would like to know it all? Delve into this book today!..... : That play would turn out to be Golden Boy and when Luther Adler was cast in the lead role instead, a disillusioned Garfield began to take a second look at the overtures being made by Hollywood.
... Garfield had been approached by Hollywood studios before-both Paramount and Warners offering screen tests-but talks had always stalled over a clause he wanted inserted in his contract, one that would allow him time off for stage work.
...The forces that prevented him from getting high quality roles were really the result of the combined willpower of the Warner Bros. , the studio system in general, and the general public, which also had its own perception of how Garfield (or Cagney or Bogart for that matter) should appear on screen.
... Now considered a late 1930s classic, the film did well critically but failed to find an audience, the public dissatisfied that it was not a true sequel (hard to pull of since the original character Mickey Borden died in the first picture).
There is absolutely nothing that isn't thoroughly covered in the book. It is straightforward, and does an excellent job of explaining all about John Garfield in key topics and material. There is no reason to invest in any other materials to learn about John Garfield. You'll understand it all.
