5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal Encaptulation of the Making Of Oz, 7 April 1999
By A Customer
I am not an avid reader but my eye caught this book on a library shelf. I thumbed through it and found the pictures to be beautiful. I decided to give it a try and was terribly moved by the contents.

Ms. Harmetz did her homework when she wrote this trivia-packed volume about those faithful months when 4 different directors molded what would become a television tradition.

I also found that Ms. Hamilton's contributions to be some of the most interesting tidbits throughout the book, this despite the fact that her entire role in the film was a total of 12 minutes!

Ms. Harmetz peaked an interest in me that has previously been non-existent. The book is phenomenal and you will finish it within one sitting-like I did! Anthony "Toto" LaPerna Jr.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!, 26 Jun 2001
By A Customer
I am a huge wizard Of Oz fan and Judy Garland fan, and this book is just wonderful. The pictures are brilliant, and it is so well written and informative. I just couldn't put it down.

5.0 out of 5 stars A jewel for fans of the movie., 23 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Almost as good as Round Up The Usual Subjects, Harmetz's book about the making of Casablanca, which is absolute magic. A terrfic story about the making of Wizard by someone who was an insider from the time she was very young.
