Publisher's Synopsis
BANGS BOOMS!
The specimen of the species herein: Dumfries Corners.
In this volume Bangs booms delightfully on suburbs (and the "urbs," of course) in such pieces as:
"The Strange Misadventures of an Organ" in which a philosopher resident of Dumfries Corners must a make an odd decision about a church organ.
"An Affinitive Romance" in which a man and a woman who are perfect for one another never meet -- and so, live happily ever after.
And, of course, the title piece "The Booming of Acre Hill" in which we meet the Acre Hill Land Improvement Company and the ghastly spectacle of the Acre Hill Country Club.
John Kendrick Bangs booms satirically indeed!
