Crabtree, Lotta

This biography introduces young readers to Lotta Crabtree (1847–1924), who began entertaining gold rush miners at age eight. Her long career as a singer, actress, and comedienne (purportedly the first American female to do comedy) is ably documented, but the tight text and sidebars in a horizontal page design and some too-small black-and-white photographs may discourage readers. Timeline. Bib., glos., ind.
