Here, for the first time, is the secret world of the index: an unsung but extraordinary everyday tool, with an illustrious but little-known past.

So many books and so little time. CAMERA MAN: Buster Keaton, the Dawn of Cinema, and the Invention of the Twentieth Century by Dana Stevens is a must read on my to-do-list.

It’s great to see new passion for Buster Keaton, who has garnished rightly deserved praise as a brilliant artist in recent years. This is one book that you should pick up and polish your knowledge on a much under appreciated silent cinema dominated by Buster Keaton.
