"A skilled storyteller with a keen eye for riveting anecdotes, Lehman writes about subjects whose audacious creativity, bravery, and ingenuity left marks, not only on Bridgeport, but on communities far beyond."
                     - Leslie Geary, University of Bridgeport
 
"From P.T. Barnum’s frequent publicity stunts to “Pogo” cartoonist Walt Kelly’s political satire, Eric D. Lehman’s new book offers insights into Bridgeport’s past."
      - From an article and interview by Brad Durrell in the Bridgeport News .
 
"Bridgeport native Joe Rich of Shelton described it as “fascinating.” He said it made him feel nostalgic for the era when he grew up in the Park City."
     - From an article about the book by Patricia Villers in the New Haven Register.
 
The book is featured on page 10 of the April 2009 edition of Connecticut Parent Magazine in an article called "Fascinating Bridgeport Tales." Look for it (free) in your local stores!
