STAGE DOOR CANTEEN A NOVEL OF NEW YORK CITY IN WW2 (winter of 42-43) Florida Times-Union (Jacksonville) "A GREAT STORY...the battle scenes are gripping and riveting, reminiscent of the opening scenes from SAVING PRIVATE RYAN. Part romance, part action and part intrigue (Stage Door Canteen) is full of rich detail. Carries the reader back to a time when the country was united against a common enemy, but did not know what was coming the next day." FIVE STARS: Customer Reviews, Amazon.com. "Maggie Davis'
STAGE DOOR CANTEEN" is not only a fascinating read with authentic
history about New York City in the 1940's and the creation of the
classic musical OKLAHOMA!, but it has inspired me to ro recreate a
Stage Door Canteen for an annual Veterans Weekend Celebration in
November. Thank you, Maggie." |

New
York City, the capital of the free world, is dark, its lights turned
off as enemy submarines lurk offshore, as close as Coney Island. Three
men - a gunner from a B-17 bomber who's a national hero, a magazine
editor uprooted from civilian life and attached to the Allied High
Command, and the violence-stalked captain of a Royal Navy Merchant
freighter - find their destinies linked with three volunteer hostesses
from New York's famous Stage Door Canteen. Genevieve Rose is a
beautiful Broadway Star in an experimental Rodgers and Hammerstein
musical that seems headed for disaster. Elise Ginsburg is an
indomitable young refugee from Hitler's terror.And Bernadine Flaherty
is the ambitious, talented teenage dancer from Brooklyn hoping for her
big show business break.
Against Manhattan's wartime glamour, GIs fresh from combat in North Africa and the Pacific find themselves dancing with the likes of the Stage Door Canteen's Katherine Hepburn and Ava Gardner. Food, whiskey and clothes are rationed, and spies are where one least expects to find them. Life is lived for the moment, love is passionate and often random, and those who can, snatch at a chance for happiness. For beyond the frenetic blackout, the entire world is fighting and dying. |
