5.0 out of 5 stars An American classic, 27 Mar 2009
By Robert Potter "mojowire" (Brighton, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Have a look at my review of Runyon's On Broadway, which sums up what these stories are mostly about. From First To Last also has some other scenes - First covers some interesting but largely forgotten stuff like the violent strikebreaking action against the Wobblies before World War 1, and the Last bits are ruminations on mortality as Runyon neared death.

This guy is a great writer, with a unique style - at least in the Broadway bits - which can encapsulate tragedy and comedy in the same paragraph, even the same sentence. Buy this book - and the other one: you won't regret it.
