A Word from Our Viewers: Reflections from Early Television Audiences. Westport, Connecticut: Praeger, 2008. Print.

Tracing public and critical responses to TV from its pioneering days, this book gathers and gives context to the reactions of those who saw television’s early broadcasts—from the privileged few who witnessed experimental and limited-schedule programming in the 1920s and 1930s, to those who bought TV sets and hoisted antennae in the post-World War II television boom, to still more who invested in color receivers and cable subscriptions in the 1960s.
