THE FORGOTTEN NETWORK chronicles the rise and fall of the DuMont Television Network, one of the country's first television networks.

From 1946 to 1955, DuMont provided a home for figures ranging from Jackie Gleason to Ernie Kovacs to Bishop Fulton Sheen to the great children's television hero, Captain Video.

You can find out more about Allen Du Mont, DuMont Laboratories, and the DuMont network here. For even more information and lots of great photos, you can buy the book.
