5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate resource for fans of Tom & Jerry..., May 27, 2002
I was fortunate to find this book several years ago, and as a big fan of Tom & Jerry cartoons, it was like finding buried treasure.

The book covers in detail the many phases of the cat & mouse duo over the years, as well as a breakdown of each cartoon short they starred in. From the classic version (my most favorite), in wonderful creations such as the World War II themed "Yankee Doodle Mouse", to the early 1950's version that introduced Butch the alley cat, Spike the dog, and Quackers the duck (my second most favorite version), to the limited and poorly drawn 1960's version (my least favorite), to the "modern" versions of Tom & Jerry (also decidedly not a favorite), you'll find everything you'd ever want to know about our cat and mouse heroes between the covers of T. R. Boodman's loving tribute.

The history of Tom & Jerry is intellegently written and completely covered. The groundbraking marriage of live film of Gene Kelly with the animation of cat and mouse in "Anchors Aweigh" (and the decision to even attempt it), is explained in clear terms. The reproductions from the actual film stocks, animated materials, drawings, and concept sketches, are all stunning in their quality and completeness.

In short, if you are a fan of Tom & Jerry, then this is the book for you. Hopefully, the book will come back into print someday. Until then, if you can find a used copy, grab it, and you'll be glad you did!
