by Charles E. Lauterbach Ph. D. (Author)
Story of how in four decades an isolated mining camp supply town, Boise, Idaho, overcame major obstacles to earn recognition as a Pacific Northwest "show town" with a fine theatre and large audiences to support frequent performances by national touring companies. Illustrated with over forty historical photographs. Brief biographies of many nineteenth century performers. Covers a wide range of theatrical events: comedies, dramas, minstrel shows, circuses, magicians, musicians and variety shows.
