Softcover. Condition: Good. Written in the aftermath of Prohibition, Stanley Walker's The Night Club Era is a lively and idiosyncratic account of the people and places that defined New York's night life during the era of "the great American madness." Here we meet murderers and millionaires, gangsters, bartenders, celebrities of the stage, screen, and society, and a host of other colorful characters who populated the city's diverse night clubs, from El Fey to the Cotton Club. Walker relives the "night of incredulous sadness" on which the Volstead Act went into effect, visits a classic speakeasy, discussing the owner's delicate arrangements with policemen, prohibition agents, and bootleggers, and details the frequently brutal swindles practiced in the city's numerous clip joints and the tactics of the era's crime organizations, explaining precisely what happens when one is "taken for a ride." Very small closed tear to top corner of front cover. Size: USA. 336 pages. Cover has a crease. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram. Category: History; History; History::American History. ISBN: 0801862914. ISBN/EAN: 9780801862915. Inventory No: 277861. Seller Inventory # 277861
