5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic Refrence book, May 8 2000
By kate thibodeaux - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: THE MARX BROTHERS ENCYCLOPEDIA. (Paperback)
This was a wonderful book, I liked it so much I even read it. First of all it is wonderfully organized. The A-Z system works very well. Second it has alot of interesting infomation andd little known facts. Anyone who wants to know about (or knows about!) the Marx Brothers will love this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good reference book., Aug 2 1998
By Randall "dba mlc3stooge" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: THE MARX BROTHERS ENCYCLOPEDIA. (Paperback)
I have enjoyed reading this book. It has good reviews of each of the brothers' films (together and solo) as well as behind the scenes information about the films. In addition there are interesting items such as shelfed projects, live shows, wigs, etc. It does suffer from not having biographies of the individual Marxes (although there are multiple informative biographies of supporting players). Also some type of summary table of contents would have been helpful; something that would have grouped the types of entries such as biographies, references to costumes, etc.

I received this & the Three Stooges Encyclopedia at the same time. The Marxes encyclopedia is the way it SHOULD be done.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a Marx Brothers Convention in a book!, Dec 22 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: THE MARX BROTHERS ENCYCLOPEDIA. (Paperback)
A well-crafted collection of photos, facts and tall tales about the comedy team. One of the top books ever on the subject, this volume suffers only in a few areas: 1) It is in encyclopedic A-Z order, but there is no index, per se. 2) It does offer dozens of photos, some very rare, of all stages of the careers of each, but does not have a specific bio on each individual brother. 3) It suffers somewhat from the editorial bias of the author, who includes subject headings you may not really care about, such as "shoes." (?) Other than those minuses, though, it is a really great book, filled with lots of interesting facts and memories. It is like having a Marx Brothers convention in a book!
