### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very well researched
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2004*

I have not read the biographies the one reviewer has mentioned. I feel that this book should be judged on its own merits. I don't have a problem with the price. This book looks like it has all the information on her career as is available.Anyone just needing a list of films can go to many online sources, saving their money on the bios too. To find out other details and minor bits of her career, I feel that this book does its job very well.One of the mistakes that many film sources make is to include 'The Savage Innocents' in her filmography. Leibfried and Lane give very sound reasons for her not being in the film, and they are correct in saying that there was another Anna May Wong, which was someone capitalizing on the name of the more famous one. I have seen the film, and there is no way that this was Wong Liu Tsong, of whom this book is concerned. They are to be commended for not bowing to the rest of the pack. They are also to be commended for digging much deeper than simply listings and articles.I have Leibfried's other work on Haggard and Kipling, along with an early article he wrote on Anna May Wong. He seems to have been around, researching and contributing to the arts for many years.It's obvious that the two authors who are concerned with her career truly cared about getting it right.None of McFarland's books are low priced, so if you can't afford it, don't buy it and complain later.It is interesting to note her radio career. I would guess that many stars had radio careers or numbers of appearances, yet they often get overlooked.I have the radio show of Pearl Buck's "The Patriot," which is well described in this book. People scramble to save Old Time Radio shows as much as they try to preserve movies, and I am very happy that this one is not only saved, but catalogued in her career.

    Reply to "Shang"
  

*by P***D on Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2004*

To the reader who calls himself  Shang:  I am the main author of this work and am sorry that you feel that you have misspent your money. No one, certainly not I, forced you to buy the book, though your purchase is certainly appreciated.  As for the timing of its publication, you must realize that Mr. Lane and I spent a number of years collecting the information found therein; we did not know of  the two biographies because they were conceived far more recently.  We welcomed their appearance, however, figuring that our book would be bought in conjunction with one of those in order for readers to have a complete picture of the woman who was Anna May Wong.  Our book was a labor of love; as admirers of Miss Wong and her achievements, we did our utmost to present readers with every aspect of her lengthy career, which had previously been covered in but a few articles, mostly of mine.  Further, the book is intended as a reference work, no shame there; it is precisely what it purports to be.  If you can do better, then do so and keep your petty complaints to yourself. You said nothing of the numerous rare photos or the many contemporary reviews concerning her lost films.  The prologue says better than any referral to "Daoist" theories  what difficulties Miss Wong faced in attaining her goals.  Did these add nothing to the value of the book in your opinion? Your are bold with your statements, sir, but too timid to even identify yourself, thereby attaching no credence to your comments.  Certainly our grammar is far superior to yours - "costed;" "mistakened;" "does not worth much"?????  Where did you get those terms - from a World War II PRC movie?  It's pidgin English at its worst, pal.

    Wong Done Right
  

*by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2005*

In ANNA MAY WONG: A COMPLETE GUIDE TO HER FILM, STAGE, RADIO AND TELEVISION WORK authors Philip Leibfried and Chei Mi Lane deliver an authoritative work of solid research and scholarship.It's a quaintly old-fashioned book. In layout and writing style it could've been published thirty or forty years ago.  Aptly, the slightly anachronistic format and feel is a fine showcase for the authors' good old-fashioned scholarship and authority. Its focus is no doubt narrower than other the two other books devoted to Wong, but is completely successful within its stated scope and goals.The book sketches Wong's life in admirable fashion, but lavishes most attention to her work in film and stage. The authors' research was truly exhaustive, and it would be hard to imagine the book ever being eclipsed. It will remain an important reference work for any scholar of Wong's work for many years to come.Richly detailed and enlivened by juicy excerpts from vintage reviews, I can imagine this book inspiring hours of pleasure for any film buff or Wong fan.Alas, the book notes that many of Wong's films are lost, but this admirable work keeps them alive in some small way through its honest affection and scrupulous scholarship.
