The Honeymooners Companion

Donna McCrohan has put together a massive amount of data and organized it wonderfully in her book, "The Honeymooners' Companion: The Kramdens and the Nortons Revisited". I know I'm going to repeat what others have said, but there's no avoiding it really. For anyone who is a fan of the show, there is no substitute for this book. It has synopses of all 39 episodes, a little bit of trivia, a good deal of biographical information, and scores of great photographs. Donna McCrohan has written this book with authority, diligent research, and not a little bit of nostalgia--but that's quite alright. When she asserts that the characters of The Honeymooners have reached an icon status in American culture, she's not exaggerating. The Honeymooners was a wonderful show and this book does it justice.

For the avid Honeymooners fan, this book has it all. Donna McCrohan and her research staff have left no stone unturned to find every fact from the original 39 episodes. Photos, stories, plot synopses, terminology, character names and references abound in this fantastic book. If you really love the Honeymooners, you've got to own this book. You'll find yourself unable to put it down. Getting through a chapter won't be easy when you come across a reference to one of the shows' characters or memorable lines, and finding yourself going to the glossary of terms to look up it's meaning. Almost every conceivable item is listed and defined.Thank you, Donna for taking me on an unforgettable "HONEYMOON" with one of television's greatest comedy shows of all time.

Great book for Honeymooners fans of all ages. This book focuses on the 'Classic 39' episodes of the show due to it's being published before the 'Lost Episodes' were found. Also includes a lot of information on the cast and the events leading to the show's success. Overall, it is highly informative and very entertaining. The follow-up book by the same author and R.A.L.P.H. co-founder Peter Crescenti titled 'The Honeymooners Lost Episodes' contains all the newfound stuff on the lost episodes
