Industry Reviews
Although most librarians will appreciate this "best of" collection, G?nzl's latest is a briefer, cheaper, and unfortunately less satisfying version of G?nzl's Book of the Musical Theater (LJ 4/15/88). Each entry reads like well-written liner notes in a compact disc. Song titles are interspersed in three- to four-page plot summaries, but production information is minimal. For plots, this work is more useful than Arthur Jackson's The Best Musicals (LJ 12/1/77), but patrons will almost always need to use another source (e.g., Stanley Green's Broadway Musicals Show by Show, Hal Leonard Bks., 1985) to gather details or critical analyses. Recommended for larger theater collections and wherever G?nzl's previous works are popular. Anthony J. Adam, Prairie View A&M Univ. Lib., Tex.
