Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wags of the Stage While the players may be, as Hamlet says, "The abstract and brief chronicles of the time," yet they are something more. They serve as time-killers and care-quellers for humanity, to prod the tedium of our idle hours, and quell the worries that may rise from out our busy ones. Many of the players in the past have been accomplished wags, and the rehearsal of their waggery is worthy the book which Mr. Whitton has written. His half-century´s intimacy with the Stage and its people has furnished him with the material, and while the greater part of this will be new to his readers, that which they may recognise as old will be, perhaps, none the less pleasing in the new dress with which he has clothed it.
