Being a chronological listing of Warner Brothers cartoons from the Golden and Silver ages, surely America's favorite cartoons at this point. This book was long-needed and its only flaws are that it could be easier to use and could use a little more critical voice. Cartoons are very difficult to remember by title, so it takes a while to find a cartoon unless you're watching it at the time; a wider variety of thematic approaches could make this easier. The author also could be clearer and provide more detail about the studio's slow descent into limited animation through the fifties and sixties. ( )
