(Applause Books). Eric Bentleys graceful look at George Bernard Shaw was first published over 50 years ago; and time has only strengthened the conviction of his ideas and arguments about Shaw. When it arrived in the late 1940s; this book was hailed by the great poet William Carlos Williams as "the best treatise on contemporary manners I think I have ever read. I was fascinated and rewarded in the depths of my soul." Even Shaw himself described the book as "the best critical description of my public activities I have yet come across."

Great read; but it needs a zoom functionBy POd New YorkerUnlike its Brooklyn counterpart "Brooklyn Streetcars (Images of Rail: New York);" written by the staff of the Branford Electric Railway Association; this book doesnt rely as heavily on images an maps; although it certainly has its share of them. Like that book; unfortunately; it lacks the ability to zoom in on those images; which is something you need when reading with Kindle and its variants. I already bought a soft copy version of the book before I bought it on Kindle Fire; and I think Im going to keep it along with my kindle version; if you dont mind.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
