"The Citizen Kane Book" combines both "Raising Kane" by Pauline Kael and "The Shooting Script" by Hermann J. Mankiewicz and Orson Welles.
"Raising Kane" is comprised of a pair of essays by Pauline Kael published by the New Yorker in 1971 to coincide with the 30th anniversary of that film's creation. The essays were immediately controversial, claiming that although Orson Welles directed the film, he wrote very little of the script. Instead, she maintained, "Citizen Kane" was written primarily by Herman Mankiewicz, who had been credited merely as co-author.
Through extensive research, it is now known that Welles was very much the co-author of "Kane." The argument instigated by Kael about the authorship of "Raising Kane" is simply wrong, and it is hard to see how Kael didn't know it was wrong.
"The Shooting Script" features the first printing of the "Citizen Kane" screenplay and the cutting continuity.
