Over two decades in the making, Mabel Normand: A Source Book to Her Life and Films (8th edition), although primarily a collection of contemporary magazine and newspaper articles about silent film comedienne Mabel Normand, also includes a short biography, essays on her film work, interviews with fellow actresses Minta Durfee Arbuckle and Anita Garvin, an appendix section specifically examining the William Desmond Taylor case, comprehensive Filmography, Bibliography and general index."This mammoth book is not a 'biography, ' although it is filled with biographical material. As the title indicates, it is a 'source book to her life and films, ' and as such is far more valuable than any mere biography. Buy it, read it, treasure it..." Bruce Long, author of "William Desmond Taylor: A Dossier." "Mabel Normand: A Source Book to Her Life and Films deserves wide readership. No reference library should be without it. It is a gallant and eminently worthwhile attempt to resurrect Mabel Normand to her rightful place in film history." Anthony Slide, film critic and historian.

Charlie Chaplin was a skilled comedian, filmmaker and composer, and the mission of this book is to educate readers on the wide variety of Chaplin’s artistry: the subtlety of his mimetic satire, the sophistication of his film direction, and his prodigious musical skill that resulted in some of film’s greatest orchestral arrangements. This encyclopedia also emphasizes the singular nature of Chaplin’s biography: his unprecedented renown, the wide list of notables in art and culture with whom he fraternized, and the controversies that seemed to dog each stage of his life, perhaps most notably in his run-ins with the FBI and the House UnAmerican Activities Committee, both of whom suspected him of communist leanings. Charlie Chaplin: A Reference Guide to His Life and Works captures his life, and legacy. It features a chronology, an introduction that offers a brief account of his life, and a dictionary section listing entries on Chaplin’s childhood, career, family, and associates. The bibliography is one of the largest available of works concerning Chaplin.
