"The Theater and Cinema of Buster Keaton will be valued by anyone who wants to remain on top of contemporary scholarship about film comedy and will be treasured by the legion of film buffs who want to know more about the classics of slapstick."--Henry Jenkins, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, author of What Made Pistachio Nuts?: Early Sound Comedy and the Vaudeville Aesthetic
"This engaging book provides a fresh synthesis in its argument about why we should value Keaton's films."--Charles J. Maland, University of Tennessee, author of Chaplin and American Culture: The Evolution of a Star Image
