About this book
Cheerful, By Request is a book by Edna Ferber. The contents list includes, among others, the titles The Gay Old Dog, The Tough Guy and Shore Leave. One piece features an editor who paid for the lunch (as editors do) and lighted his seventh cigarette.
Ten minutes before the curtain went up on the opening performance, Hahn was stricken with appendicitis. The text says no one dreamed the play would run for years, make a fortune for Hahn, lift Haddon from obscurity to the dizziest heights of stardom, and become a classic of the stage. Alderman Mooney says mildly that the house has been bought and paid for, and that it is hers. The boys all sang a great deal, bawling everything they knew, from Oh, You Beautiful Doll and Over There to The End of a Perfect Day.
