Rosenbaum has especially high praise for Wood's section on the Welles radio career:
Regarding Welles’s radio work, he offers the first thing that even remotely approaches a comprehensive account, with a keen sensitivity to how that work relates to Welles’s work in both film and theater. Apart from a few patches in John Houseman’s Run-Through and Frank Brady’s fascinating but unreliable Citizen Welles, virtually all of Welles’s chroniclers and critics have paid only glancing lip-service to this vast, undiscovered continent in Welles’s oeuvre. Although many people still believe that Welles’s film career essentially began and ended with Citizen Kane, there are surely even more who assume that his radio career began and ended with The War of the Worlds. Considering the fact that Welles did hundreds of radio broadcasts, educated and detailed commentary on this work has been by far the most gaping lacuna in Welles studies.
Wood dwarfs all his predecessors in his detailed assessments of Welles’s radio work.
