Summary: Interesting Look at the Show, But Somewhat Flawed
Comment: I was so excited to find this book and I often read the chapters on each episode just after seeing the episode on DVD. A lot of the sections are interesting, background summaries on the characters, favorite quotes and moments, topics covered in the particular episode, but there are a couple of things I'm not quite happy with. This mainly focuses on the mistake section cleverly entitled "Logic, Let Me Introduce You to This Window." The section is usually correct, but several times, "flaws" are called into question that aren't really flaws. I'll just give a couple of examples: the book might mention a country or something that is not real, such as the Reykjavik Sympony Orchestra in Episode 31. Well, this is a make-believe world and the book also mentions that fact. Not everything here matches the real world, so we can't say it is a "mistake". Another example is when the book notes that Toby (a Jew) has a Christmas card on his wall. Just because you are Jewish doesn't mean someone won't send you a Christmas or Holiday card (particularly if you work at the White House).

Summary: For fans only....
Comment: This is a guide book to the hit show the West Wing. It was written by Keith Topping who has authored several other show guides including Buffy, Angel and Roswell. This covers seasons 1-3 of the show.

I like this book and the author's style of writing. It does not contain in depth episode synopsis or analysis so those looking for that would have to look elsewhere. This book is meant for those who have seen the episodes and want more in depth knowledge. It covers
**cast/ brief bios

**episode list
**episode analysis which includes in its section
------american history
------political references
------donna comments
------logic problems (continuity errors)
------quotes
**a very brief internet intro to west wing

All in all, this book is fun for fans and those familiar with the episodes. It did not have any pictures which I felt was a lack and the reason it drops a star. Overall a worthwhile purchase
