Featuring scores of entries and 250 photos and illustrations. This outstanding A-Z reference offers rare treasures for all Charlie Chaplin fans, from seldom-seen film footage to a wealth of previously unpublished anecdotes. As well as intriguing esoterica, the Encyclopedia presents a full account, with detailed credits, of all of Chaplin’s films, from the earliest silents to “The Great Dictator,” “Limelight,” and other classics. There is also in-depth information on Chaplin’s “lost” movies, newsreels, stage work, collaborators, and much, much more. Glenn Mitchell is an internationally recognized authority on early 20th-century cinema comedy. His Laurel and Hardy Encyclopedia was hailed by Choice as: “Almost everything anyone could want to know…insightful, succinct….highly recommended”; in praise of his Marx Brothers Encyclopedia, Parade observed: “Not many reference books make you laugh out loud, but [this book] does just that, page after page.” 256 pp 7 x 10 250 b/w photos & illustrations
