The most comprehensive study on the era of burlesque. -V MagazineTraining her journalists eye on the glitter and glamour of American burlesques Greatest Generation, Liz Goldwyn takes readers on an enthralling tour of the original queens of the striptease. Goldwyns incisive expose is a retrospective of the sights and spectacles of burlesques golden age-and an intimate look at the women whose sexuality, ambition, and verve brought the cabaret stage to life.
