Entertaining and illuminating

| As a longtime researcher of the Wampas phenomenon - the yearly selection of worthy would-be starlets 1922-1934 - I was actually prepared to dislike this book by Roy Liebman. To my great surprise, I truly enjoyed it instead. Cramming a somewhat slim volume with facts of all the selected "babies" - from Joan Crawford to Maryon Aye - Liebman seems to have left no stone unturned. Naturally, you will not learn everything you want to know about, say, Clara Bow or Ginger Rogers, but The Wampas Baby Stars is a very handy first step. And you will not find fact and filmographies of Helen Cohan or Flora Bramley anywhere else. As an added threat, Mr. Liebman also discusses the wannabe Wampas selections of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. All highly entertaining and well illustrated. |
