Book Description
An irony of their personal history is that the vivid imagination so rampant in the world into which Dorcas had been born and then shackled is the only available source of how she arrived in her new home and who she actually considered herself to be there. She had moved from the coven of Salem witchcraft and its lingering aftermath to the covert of Beaufort. It became her hiding place. Like a bird or a snake, she hoped to lurk there in a kind of invisibility, but in time she produced a child. That little girl grew to adulthood in and around Beaufort. Her connection to weak-minded but crafty Dorcas lived in the daughter’s youthful mind, and stories about what had happened to Dorcas in Salem circulated in the village as well. Perhaps some of the passengers on board the ship that brought Dorcas to Beaufort had recognized her. Word spread. Her daughter became the subject of local gossip by 1720, just as Sarah Good and Dorcas had been during the witching days in 1692-93. And evil days such as those might come again. This time in Beaufort....

Book Description
Edna Ferber’s Hollywood reveals one of the most influential artistic relationships of the twentieth century—the four-decade partnership between historical novelist Edna Ferber and the Hollywood studios. Ferber was one of America’s most controversial popular historians, a writer whose uniquely feminist, multiracial view of the national past deliberately clashed with traditional narratives of white masculine power. Hollywood paid premium sums to adapt her novels, creating some of the most memorable films of the studio era—among them Show Boat, Cimarron, and Giant. Her historical fiction resonated with Hollywood’s interest in prestigious historical filmmaking aimed principally, but not exclusively, at female audiences. In Edna Ferber’s Hollywood, J. E. Smyth explores the research, writing, marketing, reception, and production histories of Hollywood’s Ferber franchise. Smyth tracks Ferber’s working relationships with Samuel Goldwyn, Leland Hayward, George Stevens, and James Dean; her landmark contract negotiations with Warner Bros.; and the controversies surrounding Giant’s critique of Jim-Crow Texas. But Edna Ferber’s Hollywood is also the study of the historical vision of an American outsider—a woman, a Jew, a novelist with few literary pretensions, an unashamed middlebrow who challenged the prescribed boundaries among gender, race, history, and fiction. In a masterful film and literary history, Smyth explores how Ferber’s work helped shape Hollywood’s attitude toward the American past.
