Good photos and some interesting films. There's a brief introduction to 1910's but it's missing some important films.

Silent Films, 1877-1996: A Critical Guide to 646 Movies... - Robert K. Klepper
I think it's strange that Klepper has rated the films. I certainly don't agree with most of the ratings - in fact I think for Klepper they are a form of forcing his opinions.

Not exactly a book on silent film, there are lots of photos and reminiscence of silent comedies that take place in amusement parks.

A collection of essays. Any book on Léonce and his films is good.

In three parts with biography, filmography and a portrait gallery. Lots of photos.
Very interesting interview snippets with Minta but overall the information is really scattered.
This book also wins the award for the most hideous cover ever.
