James Fisher. Spencer Tracy A Bio-Bibliography. Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1994 ISBN: 0-313-28727-9
 
Spencer Tracy is the latest (No. 59) and a somewhat more literate contribution to the Bio-Bibliographies in the Performing Arts series. The format is as usual with a bibliographical essay, a chronology, detailed listings of stage, screen and broadcasting work, a discography, a list of sheet music published in connection with Tracy's films, a list of awards, an annotated bibliography, and a listing of extant newsreels in which Tracy appears. Readable and intelligently compiled, but as with all books in this series over-priced. This book is staggering in its amount of detail. I don't think there has been any other entry in the Bio-Bibliographies in the Performing Arts series quite like it. Recommended.
