The Forrester brothers' fifth Stooges book traces the trio from vaudeville days with comedian Ted Healy, through the 200-plus movies that were instrumental to the survival of their studio (Columbia), to the sad spectacle of survivors of more than one version of the trio continuing the raucous act in their seventies.
The justification for the book is "never-before-revealed facts" about such peripheral matters as Healy's death long after he and the Stooges had parted, and the possibility that the strokes that killed Curly and Moe Howard may have been the ultimate results of their comical violence.
