Abstract
In his 2013 work “Pioneer Theatre in the Boise Basin: 1863-1899,” Dr. Charles Lauterbach examined the historical circumstances that allowed Boise to earn its status as a bona-fide “show town” at the beginning of the 20th century. His latest book, “The Golden Age of Boise Theatre: 1900-1920,” picks up where “Pioneer Theatre” left off, detailing the heyday of live theatrical performance in the city. Lauterbach’s book is an engaging reference work that celebrates a fascinating era in Boise’s cultural history.
