From the publisher

Silent short films practically vanished from the movie screen with the advent of sound. Despite their relatively short moment, a great many of them were made, and on a very wide range of topics. This is an exhaustive reference work detailing the split-reel and one, two, and three reel films produced or released in the United States between the years 1903 and 1929--over 26,000 in all. It lists (in alphabetical order) short silent films that have cast or production credits. Each entry includes to the extent possible through diligent research the following elements: title, release date, producing company, director, script writer, author of story, length of film in reels, and cast credits.
