This book I will cherish for all my life. I love looking back at the old GH to the present. It just shows you how awesome General hospital is. It has such great stories. Love stories like Brenda and Sonny, Robin and Stone, to break through stories like Allen drug addiction to Stone's AIDS Story. God this book will make you scream in glee or shead a few tears. To All- ENJOY!

I am a die-hard General Hospital fan and The Complete Scrapbook helped me, a younger viewer, understand all of the unspoken connections and the history of the character's. The only thing I wish for is a newer version to include the Liz and Lucky romance, as well and the Jason, Robin, Michael, and Carly scenario! Comes Highly Recommend!

This book is fantastic. It's a great source of information about your favorite characters before you started watching as well as a tool for remembering who did what in past story lines. The pictures are also a great jog down memory lane. I only wish they'd come out with a more recent edition.

Anyone who loves the Soap, "General Hospital", must get this book! This scrapbook includes fabulous "G.H." photos and stories of the show. It even has pics of Jonathan Jackson! WARNING: With this book, you can easily scare your friends and people you know by your new-found knowledge of the show and prove that you're REALLY obsessed! Another great "General Hospital" book you have to get is the offical trivia book. In that book, you can actually TEST your obsession! Well, this is a really great book and a must for any "General Hospital" fan.

Attention General Hospital fans everywhere! Finally a book has been written to unite viewers all across the globe. The General Hospital Complete Scrapbook contains everything you'll ever want to know from the first season to the 90's. Impress your friends with your new-found knowledge (or scare them with your obsession). Contains drool-worthy pics and tear-jerking tales. A must have for every fan!!!

I was extremely happy to finally get a beautifully written and pictured book of my favorite soap opera. It has a prominent place in my collection. My only problem with it (thus the 4 stars) is that I feel the characters of Anna and Robert Scorpio were simply "brushed" over. They were prominent and carried the show from the mid-80's until their departures in 1991 and 1992. I feel they were significantly downplayed in the book. Other than that, I really enjoyed reading it and remembering some of my favorite storylines.

This well-written, all-encompassing compendium, details the GH plots and sub-plots from the premiere episode (April 1, 1963) through the 1995 storylines (Monica's cancer, Ned and Lois' romance). It is, without a doubt, the best way for any new viewer to research the history of his/her favorite characters or to understand the rich background on which the show still draws so heavily. PC viewers will find the text helpful as well, since the Scotty/Lucy/Kevin connection is well documented. Warner's book includes not only the complete stories organized by year, but sections on weddings, heroes, lovers, the Qs, and backstage photos. Any GH fan will love this book. Hopefully, Warner will issue an update soon so that we will have all of GH chronicled from start of show to the millenium.

With the cancellation of both "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" by ABC in 2011, "General Hospital's" future doesn't look very bright. What makes matters worse is the announcement by the network that in September, 2012 "General Hospital's" timeslot is going back to the affiliates leaving the hospital serial's future in doubt. Soap operas have been killed by shoddy producers, writers, and network executives and this is no more evident than at ABC. It's hard to imagine but 30 short years ago ABC was making a million dollars a week in ad revenue just off "General Hospital" as their ratings were that high. Now all that is a memory.

So, I was ecstatic to find this coffee-table style book on the long-running series that was printed in 1995. The book is filled with both black and white photos as well as color snap shots of the show's first 3 decades on the air. There's also interviews, story highlights, and so much more in this impeccable and well-researched book.

If your a fan of soaps, particularly "General Hospital", this is a great momento to cherish for years to come.

EXCELLENT!!! I love this book. I've been waching GH for years now but this book gave me the backstory to alot of plots. The pictures are great and seeing all the old charachters from years back is the best. I love it, love it,love it!

This book is a prime choice whether you're a newcomer and need to be caught up on what's been going on forever or even if you're a faithful fan of 15 years. With its in-depth details of the plot since the show began and the wonderful facts and pictures, its sure to be the only book you'll need to buy on General Hospital!
