There's Laughter in the Air takes readers on a sidesplitting romp through the world of old-time radio comedy. It gives a brief history of the medium and brief but intimate accounts of some of the biggest acts from the 1930s and 1940s. Gaver and Stanley give insight on several luminaries from the days of vintage radio: Jack Benny, Fred Allen, Fibber McGee and Molly, Burns and Allen, Amos 'n Andy, and more!

Just a great collection of stories about some of our best comedians. It is so wonderful to read about people without the smut and mudra raking so common to the current garbage we see in print today. Thank you to the readers. You all did a fine job. I enjoyed this book tremendously.
