Title: Could have been much better
Review: This book is one of the few that tries to document the names, dates, and shows of old-time radio. When I first picked the book up I was thrilled to see that their were many bios about radio celebrities and many write-ups about the great radio shows. However, as I read on, I found many glaring inaccuracies. As I continued, I took a pencil and paper and started to write them down. Halfway through the book I had found 2 full pages of mistakes. These mistakes include saying that announcer Russ Hodges was sportscasting well into the 1980s (Hodges in fact died in 1970) and printing the wrong year of birth and death for many other celebrities. Any book on the golden age of radio is difficult to find information for. But at times it seems that the author didn't even bother to research this book. It was very disappointing.
