Críticas:

An essential reference work for theater students and scholars....What is especially pleasing about this book is not only its amazing cornucopia of information, but its easy readability....For all theater collections. (Library Journal)

A lively, informal history....Although this is a valuable reference work, reflecting an exhaustive knowledge of the theater, the vivid prose and memorable images also make it a joy to read. The reference value is enhanced by indexes to play titles, people, sources, and organizations. (Choice)

Hits and flops alike receive an insightful overview in this colorful saga of vintage theater history. (B'Nai B'rith Life)

A tireless researcher, he is also a concise and lively writer....An invaluable reference book and a great read. (Happening)

...accessible and of...interest to the general reader... (Daily News)

Reseña del editor:

This is the second volume in Bordman's monumental history of the non-musical American theatre. It analyses each Broadway show chronologically from 1914 to 1930 - the period when American drama was most prolific and productive.
