"Part history, part celebration, and part love letter to the art of ventriloquism, April Brucker's 250 Years of American Ventriloquism introduces readers to the rich and often unappreciated history of a uniquely American performance tradition.

At long last, one of America's distinctive performance traditions finds its voice." - Frank Leon Roberts, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of English, Amherst Colllege.
