Rating: 4
Summary: Pricey but Worth It
Comment: Doyle brings to life a clutch of fascinating, utterly forgotten (even by real film buffs) performers from the earliest days of silent films in this superb collection of short biographical essays. The tales are gripping and well-told. The book's second half makes it a must-have for libraries and serious researchers: an amazingly detailed list of everyone who ever stepped in front of a silent camera; their birth and death dates and places. Doyle's research is staggering. It's a shame a major house couldn't have put this book out and given it a lower price and more photos, but anyone interested in silent films should save their pennies to buy this.
