The Night Club Era should rate as a Broadway Koran. Other books on the subject are unnecessary if they agree with it, wrong if they differ from it, and in either case should be burned."—Alva Johnston, from the Introduction

Written in the aftermath of Prohibition, Stanley Walker's The Night Club Era is a lively and idiosyncratic account of the people and places that defined New York's night life during the era of "the great American madness." Here we meet murderers and millionaires, gangsters, bartenders, celebrities of the stage, screen, and society, and a host of other colorful characters who populated the city's diverse night clubs, from El Fey to the Cotton Club. Walker relives the "night of incredulous sadness" on which the Volstead Act went into effect, visits a classic speakeasy, discussing the owner's delicate arrangements with policemen, prohibition agents, and bootleggers, and details the frequently brutal swindles practiced in the city's numerous clip joints and the tactics of the era's crime organizations, explaining precisely what happens when one is "taken for a ride."

Among the larger-than-life night club habitués Walker sketches are Owney Madden, the elder statesman of the city's rackets; Walter Winchell, America's most influential columnist and the "brash historian of our life and times"; Mayor James J. Walker, who typified the gaudiness, smartness, and insouciance of the city he ran, yet was never too refined to shoot dice on hotel room floors; and Texas Guinan, the beloved entertainer, hostess, and entrepreneur who greeted customers with her trademark phrase "Hello, sucker!" Vividly told, The Night Club Era offers a singular, serious—though never sober—history of New York City during Prohibition.

Good alternative without
This filter kit is a convenient all-in-one replacement for my 2011–2017 Honda Odyssey. Both the cabin and engine air filters fit perfectly and were easy to swap out in just a few minutes. The quality feels solid, and it’s great not having to buy the filters separately. A quick upgrade that helps the van run cleaner and keeps the cabin air fresh.

Impressive High-Tech Cabin Filter That Actually Eliminates Odors
This is by far the most advanced cabin filter I’ve ever used. My 2017 Civic came with a lingering interior smell that even a full professional detail couldn’t remove—but this filter did the trick almost immediately. The design is impressive, with a sturdy outer “shell” and clear labeling that makes installation quick and foolproof. It has a very modern, high-tech look, and the airflow direction is easy to identify. The fit is spot-on, and the performance has genuinely exceeded my expectations. I’m so impressed that I plan to switch my other vehicles over to this same style of filter in the future.
