Mrs. Leffingwell�������s Boots is a farcical comedy play written by Augustus Thomas in 1916. The story revolves around Mrs. Leffingwell, a wealthy woman who is obsessed with her boots. She believes that her boots bring her good luck and refuses to take them off, even when she goes to bed. Her husband, Mr. Leffingwell, is frustrated with her behavior and wants her to get rid of the boots. The play takes place in the Leffingwell�������s home, where a group of characters gather for a dinner party. The guests include a doctor, a lawyer, a politician, and a young couple. As the night progresses, chaos ensues as the guests try to get their hands on Mrs. Leffingwell�������s boots. The play is filled with witty dialogue, physical comedy, and absurd situations. It satirizes the upper-class society of the time and their obsession with material possessions. The characters are caricatures of the different social classes, and their interactions provide a commentary on the social hierarchy of the time.Overall, Mrs. Leffingwell�������s Boots is a humorous and entertaining play that provides a glimpse into the societal norms and values of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
