Come Backstage With Me by Benny Rubin. "Benny Rubin is not only a genuinely funny man, he is a perceptive show-business historian. It is important that he has transmitted to us his first-hand knowledge of the world of entertainment" by Steve Allen "I have been laughing at Benny Rubin telling stories for fifty years. If that sounds paradoxical because I am only thirty-nine, that was before I was reincarnated to this age. Knowing him all of those years, I still laugh at him because he just doesn't tell a story, he lives the people. During the time he worked with me on more that four hundred radio and television shows, I have asked him to write just this kind of book, and I am extremely happy that he has" by Jack Benny "Benny Rubin is one of God's chosen people. Why, because he's Jewish? No. Because he's made millions of people laugh; made them happy" by Frank Capra Bowling Green University Press

The American Dream and the National Game

This engaging study examines sports as both a symbol of American culture and a formative force that shapes American values. Leverett T. Smith Jr. uses "high" culture, in the form of literature and criticism, to analyze the popular culture of baseball and professional football. He explores the history of baseball through three important events: the fixing of the 1919 World Series, the appointment of Judge Landis as commissioner of baseball with dictatorial powers, and the emergence of Babe Ruth as the "new" kind of ball player. He also looks at literary works dealing with leisure and sports, including those of Thoreau, Twain, Frost, Lardner, and Hemingway.  Finally he documents the emergence of professional football as the national game through the history and writings of former Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi, who emerges as both a critic of the business-oriented society and a canny businessman and manager of men himself.First paperback edition
