Literary Cincinnati fills in this missing chapter, taking the reader on a joyous ride with some of the great literary personalities who have shapedlife in the Queen City. Meet the young Samuel Clemens working in a local print shop, Fanny Trollopestruggling to open her bizarre bazaar, Sinclair Lewis researching Babbitt, hairdresser Eliza Pottertelling thesecrets of her rich clientele, and many more who defined the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Queen City. For lovers of literature everywhere--but especially in Cincinnati--this is a literary tour that will entertain, inform, and amuse. "--
