5.0 out of 5 stars
Including an in-depth analysis of the cause of the crash and a close scrutiny of Mary's subsequent misfortune,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When the Laughing Stopped: The Strange, Sad Death of Will Rogers (Hardcover)
In the summer of 1935, beloved American "cowboy philosopher" and popular movie/radio star Will Rogers perished in a plane crash, on the shore of the Arctic Ocean in northernmost Alaska. By pure chance, Rogers' beloved daughter Mary happened to be performing in a play about a plane crash at the time of Rogers' death, an misfortunate coincidence that abruptly ended her career. Further ripples of the tragedy echoed in the hearts and minds of the public. When the Laughing Stopped: The Strange, Sad Death of Will Rogers explores the circumstances behind Will Rogers' passing, including an in-depth analysis of the cause of the crash and a close scrutiny of Mary's subsequent misfortune. A handful of black-and-white photographs illustrate this thoughtful, exhaustively researched account.
