Alfred Damon Runyon was best known for his short stories celebrating the world of Broadway in New York City that grew out of the Prohibition era. To New Yorkers of his generation, a 'Damon Runyon character' evoked a distinctive social type from Brooklyn or Midtown Manhattan. The term 'Runyonesque' was coined to refer to this type of character and the type of situations and dialog that Runyon depicts. The novel 'Runyon from First to Last' is a collection of his short stories. Some of the stories included are: 'Old Em's Kentucky Home', 'A Light in France', 'Barbecue' 'Little Pinks' 'Blonde Mink' 'Big Boy Blues' and 'Cleo'.
