The Complete A-Z Of Dad's Army

Dad's Army is one of the greatest sitcoms ever made. This book, compiled by Richard Webber with assistance from the show's writers Jimmy Perry and David Croft, contains everything ever connected to Dad's Army. It gives a unique look at the history of the famous sitcom as a reference book, covering everything from "AA Man, The" to "Young Charlie". The book also contains a series of never before published photos and scripts, including the original version of "The Recruit" written before James Beck became too ill to record the episode.
