CASABLANCA COMPANION: The Movie Classic and Its Place in History


CASABLANCA COMPANION: The Movie Classic and Its Place in History
Customer Review: Casablanca Companion Review--Great History
For those who are interested in how closely the film Casablanca actually follows historical events, Osborne's book is a must. Tremendous research was involved in finding out just how Casablanca fit into the reality of WWII. Surprisingly, it is quite historically accurate as Osborne is able to show. When the film is in error he does point it out and his explanation of the signature on the Letters of Transit finally clears up that issue. Well written with helpful maps, photos, and illustrations, Osborne's book has been an invaluable resource for me in writing by own book Casablanca Film Trivia: Here's Looking at You, Kid which will be published in the fall of 2008
