(Applause Books). Here is the first-ever collection of classic comic sketches from the bawdy; rowdy world of our slum music halls! Habitues of Burlesque (and sons of habitues) will revel in the boisterous stock scenes and blackouts of this uniquely American form of popular entertainment. Features a foreword by Dick Martin.

Irresistibly entertaining and informative!By Leslie TuttleVastly entertaining and informative day-by-day review of historic events in Detroit area; from its early days until recent times. Im not reading an entry a day; but the books format allows me to read as much or as little as I want at a sitting. The subject matter is fascinating and Mr Loomis is an excellent teacher. I recommend this book to anyone with a interest in Detroit or in American history in general
