There are several Stooge books on the market. The best-selling one is "From Amalgamated Morons to American Icons: The Three Stooges," which is essentially a beginners guide to the Stooges (one reviewer called it "a glorified magazine article.") Another popular one is "The Three Stooges Encyclopedia," which is perfect for those who want to know everything about the Stooges' films themselves. In that volume, every single joke in every single film is indexed. Quite impressive, actually.
This book is for true die-hard fans. In addition to covering the obligatory biographies/career overview/filmography, it chronicles the Stooges' relatively unknown works, including comic books, record albums, and television shows.
The career overview and filmography and biographies are among the most entertaining and tidbit packed of any Three Stooges book, and this even contains an introduction by Joe Besser. If you're a die-hard Stooge fan, this is the way to go.

Partially written by Moe's daughter, this is the book the budding stooge fan should buy first. Each of the stooges (Moe, Larry, Curly, Shemp, Joe, and Curly Joe) are given a separate biographical chapter. Their filmmaking history is covered, as well as less well known forays into Television, Comic Books, and yes, singing record albums. The stooges proved to be successful in nearly everything they tried. But the best feature by far is the reference synopses of EVERY stooge short, complete with cast list, director, and trivia. If a gag was used in multiple shorts (many were), they are cross-referenced. A must for any stooge's film festival. Another highlight is photos of the original lobby cards for the shorts. A number of family photographs are included, in which almost all, the boys are shown mugging. A gem for any stooge fan, it has been in print for more than 20 years.

By far the best and most interesting book on the Stooges. Makes the other bios look bad. I am referring to the hardcover edition.

I have owned this book since it was first published and words can't describe how much I love it. I refer to it all the time. Love drips off the pages--the love the Stooges had for their fans, their families for them, and the Stooges for each other. Who wouldn't be proud to be a Stooge?
