Editorial Reviews

Chicago Tribune
It's rare when a travel guide makes itself as meaningful at home as on vacation . . . This is one of them . . . The book is as much a trip down Memory lane as it is through Hollywood.
Palm Beach Post
[This book is] easily the most comprehensive book on the subject . . . encompassing everything from the silent days to the modern era . . . [the authors] have done a yeoman job.
RoadTripAmerica.com
Their careful selections, combined with photographs and biographical sketches of each actor result in a fascinating mosaic of Hollywood history and style from the early 1900's to the present.
