I used to read Terrance Dicks Doctor Who paperbacks in the 70s without ever having seen the program, yet still enjoyed them; so I was pleased to find out, when I moved to Wisconsin in the late 80s, that Doctor Who was shown on PBS Sunday afternoons.
The first I saw of the series was Tom Baker and The Keys of Time storyline, which was an awful good place to start. I have been a fan ever since.
That made me eager to read Doctor Who: A History by Alan Kistler, a guy who is a bigger fan of Doctor Who than me. This nonfiction account of the first 50 years of the program has a lot of interesting stories and sidebars for the more serious fans of the program, but is a good primer for new viewers.
I listened to this on audiobook, read by the author, and enjoyed it immensely. Recommended for fans of the current and classic programs.
