    摘要、提要註: "The history of Cincinnati runs much deeper than the stories of hogsthat once roamed downtownstreets. In addition to hosting the nation'sfirst professional baseball team, the Tall Stacks riverboating, and the May Festival, there's another side to the city--one that includes some of the mostfamous names and organizations in American letters. Literary Cincinnati fills in this missing chapter, taking the reader on a joyous ride with some of the great literary personalities who have shapedlife in the Queen City. Meet the young Samuel Clemens working in a local print shop, Fanny Trollopestruggling to open her bizarre bazaar, Sinclair Lewis researching Babbitt, hairdresser Eliza Pottertelling thesecrets of her rich clientele, and many more who defined the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Queen City. For lovers of literature everywhere--but especially in Cincinnati--this is a literary tour that will entertain, inform, and amuse. "--
