Bill Bryson

This is a slender volume at just under 200 pages but it is Bryson, so I have to read it. I was not disappointed. Great research into a subject with a lot of missing pieces. I enjoyed he explaining what he found and writing about others claims. It was a lovely snapshot at that period of time and the unique characteristics that created such prolific writing in theatre. Not as definitive as his other works, but he could not be with the source material and treated it well I thought.
