{"product_id":"the-algonquin-kid-adventures-michael-elihu-colby-9781593937935","title":"The Algonquin Kid - Adventures Growing Up at New York's Legendary Hotel (hardback)","description":"This is the hardback version. The true life story of Michael Elihu Colby and his childhood days at Manhattan's Algonquin Hotel. His grandparents Mary and Ben B. Bodne had traded their southern oil fortune for the legendary but faded Algonquin and restored the hotel's former glory. Their efforts led to a remarkable renaissance and attracted an overflow of celebrities from the ridiculous to the sublime. Michael weaves a vivid tapestry of encounters with glittering Broadway and Hollywood celebrities in a kaleidoscopic memoir of illustrious figures-some on a meteoric rise, some in tragic decline-while he found his own place in the topsy turvy world of the Broadway theatre and musicals. Nearly 200 rare photographs and illustrations, a Bibliography, Appendixes, and an Index.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Elihu Colby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1593937938\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781593937935\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e BearManor Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Michael Elihu Colby","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44228006969599,"sku":"9781593937935","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e75ca1c9-f636-4f30-b1fa-2f35da64ed5d.jpg?v=1692811561","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-algonquin-kid-adventures-michael-elihu-colby-9781593937935","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
