Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
"Lucy, you got some splainin' to do!" Fans of comedic genius Lucille Ball and mambo king Desi Arnaz won't want to miss I Love Lucy, the complete compendium to one of the most popular TV shows in history. Beginning with an introduction by their daughter, Lucie Arnaz, the text follows a thorough chronological outline of her parents' careers. Almost overwhelming in detail, the book contains synopses of the show's six seasons and 179 episodes, as well as telling tidbits about cast members, family, and friends. For example, the show helped heal Vivian Vance: "When she accepted the role of Ethel Mertz, she would later admit that, along with her continuing analysis, [the show] was what had provided her with the glue she needed to keep her alive and her mental health intact." More than just a collection of '50s factoids, I Love Lucy is an insightful, loving tribute to one of the most loved duos in broadcasting history.

Midwest Book Review
Collectors with a prior interest in Lucy collectibles and history will relish a volume which provides the most complete picture history of the shows and its stars: a lavish production indeed. Numerous black and white and color shots from the show plus behind-the-scenes family and show portraits supplement a fine, in-depth Lucy coverage. Prior fans will want to include this volume in their collections.
