TV Wonderland: The Enchantment of Early Television Brad and Debra Schepp Collector Press ISBN: 1-933112-05-0 Entertainment, History Reviewed by Dr. Tami Brady

Do you remember when your family got your first color television set? Do you remember fighting with those silly rabbit ears for hours trying to get a better picture? Do you remember watching Howdy Doody, Gunsmoke, The Rifleman, Bonanza, or The Twilight Zone?

TV Wonderland: The Enchantment of Early Television takes the reader on a tour of remembrance of the early years of television from its conception through its various evolutions such as colour, bigger size, mobility, and cable television to how this invention transformed the average family. On every page, surrounding the text of this book, are the collections of hundreds of television advertisements showing the gradual changes in both television and in advertising. All of these aspects put together bring back long forgotten memories of a slower gentler time in our lives and in our communities.
