Excerpt from Memoirs of Joseph Shepherd Munden, Comedian On the 10th June, 1776, Mr. Garrick retired from the stage, and quitted it, leaving no rival or successor - for no subsequent actor could embrace the vast sphere of his genius. He ran through the "whole compass" of the drama, and was "master of all." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This is the biography of Thomas Abthorpe Cooper, the first star of the American stage. Cooper was the chief transitional figure between the British and American stage and contributed greatly to the development of American theatre. For the 30 years after 1797, Cooper performed in the major cities and toured to every state in the Union. This work covers his entire life and career from his birth outside London in 1775, to his famed performance to celebrate the opening of the City of Washington in 1800, to his death in Bristol, Pennsylvania, in 1849. Much research is drawn from Mr. Cooper's letters to his mentor, English radical philosopher William Godwin. Throughout, there are descriptions of his principal portrayals at different stages drawn from contemporary accounts and theatrical reviews. There are also 22 illustrations, from paintings and engravings to playbills and photographs of the sites associated with the actor.
