USA Today called Karen Abbott's first book, Sin in the Second City, "sizzle history." American Rose: A Nation Laid Bare — The Life and Times of Gypsy Rose Lee, Abbott's account of the burlesque superstar, follows suit. Gypsy's story, steeped in the glamour of the jazz-age underworld, reproaches today's relatively boring celebrities (with the exception of the excitingly sleazy Nicolas Cage).
