Reviews

Rich in names, dates, and facts. . . . Kabatchnik is making an extraordinary contribution to mystery scholarship.
*Mystery Scene Magazine, Spring 2010*

This material is astonishingly complete and up to date. The author correctly describes this work as a 'labor of love'. It is also a fascinating document that deserves a place in any library with a sizable collection on theater.
*American Reference Books Annual*

Succint, but lively and tantalizing.... If anything, his latest book is bigger and better. In the terminology of the world of theatre, it's a hit!
