Denman Thompson's Old Homestead is a play that was first performed in 1886 and became one of the most popular and enduring productions of the late 19th century. The play tells the story of Joshua Whitcomb, a farmer from Vermont who moves to New York City with his family in search of a better life. Along the way, they encounter a variety of colorful characters and face numerous challenges, but ultimately find success and happiness in their new home. The play is filled with humor, sentimentality, and a celebration of rural life, and was widely praised for its authentic portrayal of American culture and values. This book, published in 1889, contains the script of the play, as well as photographs and illustrations from various productions. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of American theater in the late 19th century, and remains a beloved classic of American drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
