Mistakes

There is at least one mistake on every page on the facts about M.A.S.H. and as a person who watched the whole show there are mistakes easy to point out. Ex. On page 58 the book says “that when Radar showed the incubator to Hawkeye and Trapper he stated tada happy germs sir.” If you have watched the show Radar then asks “can you set this thing to medium rare.” The BBQ in this episode is never mentioned which was the item traded not Henry’s golf bag. For serious M.A.S.H. Enthusiasts the book doesn’t match what was actually filmed. Disappointing! The only good thing was the pictures.

That big green MASH book

I got this book wa-a-ay back in 1989 when it first came out, and I guess it could be considered as the first book to cover all of the episodes . . . in a way. The writers have taken the main lead plot of each episode and boiled it down to a 1 or 2 paragraph text, making it a very entertaining rundown of each episode.But it doesn't stop there, it also has the background to each season, why they made the changes they made for the season, has interviews with all of the major stars, and gives us a rundown of what episode won an emmy.Even if you think you know everything there is to know about MASH, get this book, and you'll discover that there are things you don't know.

The Complete review for: The complete book of M*A*S*H

If you got a question, or even an answer, if you want to check the facts, get this book! It covers all episodes of M*A*S*H.The book gives a couple paragraph of each episode in superb detail (this also includes the movie and final episode). Not only does it explains the episodes but also has interviews of most of the cast.It even includes vital information of the history of M*A*S*H. No M*A*S*H collection is complete without this book.Warning: This book is very adictive.

Pefect Book For A MASH Fan

This book has almost everything that a MASH fan could want. Every season of the show is covered with a synopsis of each episode, the only problem with these synopsis' is that they could be a little more detailed (except for the synopsis of the final episode which is very detailed). This book also features a huge amount of full color pictures from the show and many interviews with every actor on the show and some of the producers and directors. With all these elements in place this is an awesome book for a MASH fan.

A must have for all you fans who can't remember that name

This book is excellent!! A must have for any and all M*A*S*H fans!! It has tons of pictures, and lots of information. The only problems are 1) It could be a little more complete and 2) there are numerous errors. What I mean about errors are not gramitical, but in the show's plot. She does say that she got the information from the scripts, so there's bound to be some changes from the writing to the airing. But other then that, this book is great!

A must have for any M*A*S*H fan!!

When I bought this book at a flea market for 10 dollars, I thought it would be just a dumb book. But, As I read through it, I found it was really interesting and supplied a lot of information. In the beginning it supplies info on the movie(brief) and how they turned it into a show, the real M*A*S*H units, and other stuff that's good to know. The book is mostly a collection of synopsisses of TV shows, sorted by year, by order. One year is a chapter, and at the end of each chapter is a short biography of a charactor. There are an uncountable number of pictures in this book(although most are black and white) that really make the book interesting. I think every M*A*S*H fan should have this book!
