Book Reviews of Wit's End: Days and Nights of the Algonquin Round Table
Book Review: The Wits at the Algonquin Round Table
Summary: 5 Stars
Oh to have participated with these witty, literary and most times intoxicated giants of this era would have been a delight but certainly not for the thin skinned. You would have had to have kept your wits about you or you would have been sliced and diced by some of the most remarkable and acerbic tongues of this fine table. Here are some truly remarkable characters vividly brought to life by James Gaines. A joyous and intelligent read.
