MASH Is Great, a review by CYD,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: MASH Goes to London (Paperback)
This was a fun book. I like MASH, and for any fans of the movie (1970) or sitcom (1972 - 83) this book will bbe a treat. The characters are different (except for Hawkeye, Trapper, and the main characters) and they have different stories, even J. Robespierre "Radar" O'Reilly. It's good to buy.

Richard Hooker... SURE he wrote it.,
By
This review is from: MASH Goes to London (Paperback)
After "MASH" & "MASH Goes to Maine," Richard Hooker "took on a collaborator", William E. Butterworth, for a series of "MASH Goes to..." books.The first two MASH books are basically collections of short stories with a very loose structure. The Butterworth books are sitcom novels... and not very good ones. After the Butterworth series was played out, Hooker released "MASH Mania," which was a loosely structured series of short stories about the Swampmen in middle-age -- a rock-ribbed Republican middle-age, in fact, amazing though that may be to fans of the TV series, which Hooker hated. Although this book has politics opposite to my own, it's still funny and more importantly, Hooker WROTE IT. From the completely different writing styles involved, I'd say that if Hooker ever even SAW what Butterworth wrote, it was to say, "Yeah, ok. I'll approve that." I like Hooker's writing; so I felt rather manipulated by the Butterworth MASH books, which to my mind are Hooker's in name only.
