Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Extravaganzas of J. R. Planch�, Esq., (Somerset Herald) 1825-1871, Vol. 1
I cannot better evince my deep sense of the obligation I am under to the kind friends who have paid me this high and gratifying compliment than in endeavouring to impart to this edition of my Extravaganzas an interest for the general reader which they do not intrinsically possess, by the addition of notes, biographical and anecdotical, concerning the many eminent artists who have contributed to their popularity, the managements by which they were produced, and all other information which may tend to illustrate the history of the London stage, from my personal experience, during the last Sixty years.
