Synopsis

Republic Pictures, the undisputed leader in Hollywood serials and westerns, was also a prolific producer of classic mysteries. Unfortunately, most haven't been shown on TV in decades and have only recently resurfaced thanks to video streaming services. And many still remain unavailable to the general public. This is the first book ever to examine virtually the entire mystery output of the iconic studio during its most productive period ... the thirties and forties. So grab a chair, relax and enjoy, as we explore Republic's "Hollywood Whodunits!"

À propos de l'auteur

Broadcast journalist Brian McFadden began his fascination with Republic Pictures as a child, when Republic was one of the few studios providing movies to television. (Major studios still considered TV “The Enemy!”) Throughout his career, McFadden never missed an opportunity to expand his research on “The Little Studio in the Valley,” and its tremendous contributions … not just to serials and westerns … but also to feature films. In addition to "Republic Mysteries, The Serial Studio’s Whodunits," McFadden is the author of its companion volume, "Republic Horrors, The Serial Studio’s Chillers," as well as a highly-praised book about the iconic British horror film producer, Amicus.The author and his wife live in the Somerset Hills of New Jersey.
