nostalgia is very worthwhile
ms. blumberg's book transported me back in time to a place that may have remained a hazy memory. her writing was so vivid tha i could half close my eyes and be back on that country road hitch-hiking (it was okay in the 40's} between hotels.

laced with the humor of the time, the book is a grabber. i also found myself a little teary at times, not from sadness, but rather from sweet memories. however, i found my self reading more and more slowly as i approached the end. i really wanted more.

Warm, nostalgic, fun!!!!
This book takes the reader back to the heyday of the Catskill resort era. The author attacks the cliches about the Catskills, providing her spin on this great era in the resort industry. What makes this book a truly fun read is the humor. This book brought me back to a place that was special to me.
