Drag: Combing Through the Big Wigs of Show Business by Frank Decaro is This book gives me all the feels. It's a beautiful, dishy, and heartfelt valentine to drag. Writer Frank DeCaro gives a breezy but comprehensive look at drag through the ages, with tons of photos and personal interviews with Big Queens past and present. Come for the Ru Paul Drag Race Alums, stay for the Charles Pierces and Craig Russells and Jim Baileys!
Drag: Combing Through the Big Wigs of Show Business by Frank Decaro is A beautifully made hardcover book that any lover of drag should not hesitate to buy. Lots of great info about drag herstory. If all you know is RuPaul’s Drag Race you simply must pick this up to fill in all the gaps that came before the reality show. It’s a no brainer!
Drag: Combing Through the Big Wigs of Show Business by Frank Decaro is I bought this book because I am a fan of Frank Decaro. I would listen to his daily SiriusXM radio show and learn a lot about the inner workings in Hollywood and Broadway along with daily doses of pop culture. He and his co-host Doria Biddle always delivered laughs and information. I was sad to see the show, along with the station canceled.When I saw that Decaro was writing this book and it was available for pre-sale I ordered immediately. I am glad I did. Bruce Vilanch says, I believe, in the forward that with this book the reader is getting not a book about drag but an encyclopedia of drag. That is correct! This book is well research, and the layout made it a fantastic read. I always enjoy learning about new topics, and Decaro made this worthwhile.
Drag: Combing Through the Big Wigs of Show Business by Frank Decaro is Buy this book NOW! It’s surreal to live in a time where this book exists. The thoroughness, the attention to detail, the gamut of “types†discussed .. I’m 110 pages in - not even halfway - and I’m constantly learning. I knew a lot about drag - both mainstream and not so mainstream- before reading this book, but this is truly an encyclopedia that has expanded my knowledge exponentially.
