The Three Stooges: An Illustrated History
by Michael Fleming
I first heard of this book in a newspaper article about a TV movie based on this book. As is my practice, I first watched the cinematic rendition and then delved into the book for its greater depth and eloquence. With this one, however, the greater depth was pretty shallow. Even so, it effectively tells the Stooges' story and then goes on to examine their cinematic legacy and provide a filmography of all of their Columbia two-reelers. If you are a Stooges fan, check it out. If not, it might make good waiting room material.
