Book Reviews of Kings of Madison Avenue: The Unofficial Guide to Mad Men

Book Review: A great, insightful read for big Mad Men fans
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm one of those Mad Men fans that have watched every episode in the series thus far multiple times - maybe even dozens. I notice new details each and every time, no matter how subtle. If you're the kind of fan that loves the series that much and admires all the details, this is a fun read. It delves into interesting cultural, era and landmark-specific aspects, giving you a broader appreciation for not only what was going on in the episode, but what's gone into making an episode. From learning about the actors themselves, to things that have influenced Matt Weiner to famous authors and books of the time, you'll walk away even more satisfied with everything you've enjoyed and - if you're like me - want to relive those episodes another time or two.
