An encyclopedic treasure-trove Three Stooges' history, covering in detail their personal appearances from the late 1920s thru 1970, enhanced with hundreds of rare and unique photos and images. Not to be overlooked, addendum chapters cover the pre-1929 Ted Healy years when the comedy team was a "work in progress," plus the solo live appearances of Stooges including Shemp Howard, Joe Besser and Joe DeRita.
From the back cover...
"Follow the travels of America's favorite comedy trio over five decades as they bring their unique brand of entertainment to live audiences. The Three Stooges toiled as much as eight months a year on the road, but none of these antics were ever chronicled... until now.
Accompany the Boys day by day on tour as they entertain their fans at theaters, military bases, circuses, hospital wards, and even a corn palace, with over 1,500 personal appearances documented for the very first time.
Featuring hundreds of never-before-seen photos, documents, and stage reviews that bring the Stooges' road trips to life, this book will convince you that All the World's a Stooge."
