Doctor Who A History

So you think you know everything there is to know about the Doctor Who TV show for its first 50 years?

Yeah me too. We are both wrong.

There is so much history it’s hard to wrap my brain around it. I started watching Doctor Who during the Tom Baker period.

I found it to be quirky, weird, strange and yet somehow compelling. I couldn’t get enough.

College and marriage intervened and for a number of years I watched very little of the show-just bits and pieces.

It wasn’t until the 9^th Doctor that I earnestly began watch the series consistently again. The certainly have been a lot of changes.

In Doctor Who A History-Celebrating Fifty Years author Alan Kistler along with Globe Pequot and Lyons Presss explore the ups and down of the famous British TV series.

In the book there are discussions from actors, directors and others associated with the series along with the author that look at the ups and downs, production, cast and crew, key moments, startling revelations and the progression of the series from a kitchy series to a special effects laden powerhouse that millions of fans from all over the world love.

There is so much information and all of it is presented in chronological order ripe with insights, behind-the-scenes goodies and more than a few surprises.

John 16:33These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
