About the Book

A behind-the-scenes look into the life and groundbreaking entertainment career of Tom Dreesen. As heard on The Dennis Prager Show! "Excellent material, superb delivery, impeccable timing...[he] is the quintessential comedian."--Larry Wilde, author of The Great Comedians From shining shoes in dark saloons on the south side of Chicago to traveling the country as the opening act for Frank Sinatra, this is the story of Tom Dreesen's unlikely journey to a fifty-plus year career as a pioneer of stand-up comedy and a legend of the entertainment industry.
