Broadway Reviews

'Bloom adds a touch of atmosphere with entries on critics, restaurants, publicity stunts, nightclubs, and other periphery characters and incidents that are so much a part of the Great White Way. As much a storyteller as a chronicler, he uses anecdotes and a plethora of black-and-white photographs, many never before published, to produce and entertaining as well as an informative work. Highly recommended for all theater collections.' - Library Journal

'Recommended. All academic and public library theater and cultural studies collections.' - Choice

'No other reference work on Broadway includes coverage as vast or as comprehensive. Bloom's classic Encyclopedia is the single best guide to Broadway available anywhere.' - The Guide to Musical Theatre

'This fact-packed, entertaining survey of the highlights of American theater is truly an outstanding value for both academic and public libraries.' - Lawrence Looks at Books
