Another Librarian's review of Yggyssey
Author Daniel Pinkwater parodies the mid-nineteenth century Hollywood with aplomb, from swashbuckling actors like Errol Flynn to the atomic bomb; however, much the humor may be lost on the novel’s targeted age group.
... What, with their complete and total ignorance of mid-ninteenth century, that is 1850s, Hollywood.

Receiving a tweet from Scott Simon. Who is friends with Daniel Pinkwater. That's interesting; I did not know that. I thought they just had a cold forced-cordial work relationship.
