Editorial Reviews

Review

“Gehring's biobibliography of Charlie Chaplin is the work of a mature scholar fully familiar and at ease with his subject matter. Although the work is several distinct pieces, these parts work together to create a satisfying whole. ... Each of these sections is well done--interesting to read and complete. The biography is as good a short introduction to Chaplin's life and films as has been published. The bibliographical essay ... offers clear and reliable evaluations of the works considered. The filmography carefully lists everyone involved in each Chaplin film. This volume will be useful to both advanced scholars and undergraduates seeking an introduction to Chaplin and his works.”–Choice
