Hollywood

In the early 1900s, nobody knew about the quiet village of Hollywood. But In 1910 the first film makers arrived and then the studios opened. By the 1920s, it was more famous for movies than any other place. Soon, when people talked about the American film industry, they said one word-Hollywood.

This book explain about Hollywood, the story of Hollywood and film and today of Hollywood in detail.
I was surprised many times reading this book and there are many things about Hollywood I didn't know until I read this book.
First, I was surprised about that there were only 500 people in Hollywood in 1900.
It is unbelievable that Hollywood became what it is today from 1900 to now.
