Bruns, Roger A. DESERT HONKYTONK The Story of Tombstone's Bird Cage Theatre
Fulcrum Publishing 2000 Softcover New in New dust jacket
1555914160 Brand New: Pristine copy. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; After a legendary 30-second gunfight, Tombstone's place in American western history was cemented. But long before the incident at the OK Corral, Tombstone, Arizona, made its mark on the map, thanks to the Bird Cage Theatre, the most infamous variety house of the nineteenth-century Southwest. This colorful history of Tombstone's favorite honkytonk shows how westerners played hard in the frontier West. Home to western-style vaudeville, the Bird Cage Theatre was touted the "wickedest night spot between Basin Street and the Barbary Coast. " The riotous, smoke-fille d establishment served up singers, dancers, magicians, comedians, and other "forms of live entertainment" for the hard-rock miners, cowboys, railroad workers, soldiers, speculators, assorted drifters, and outlaws and lawmen of an emerging West. Desert Honkytonk unveils the story of the Bird Cage through careful research and lively storytelling , providing a fascinating glimpse into the lives that populated the desert Southwest in the early days. 4744
