Published in 1966, this was Shep's first book wich was a collection of the short stories he wrote for Playboy magazine.
"The Endless Streetcar Ride Into The Night, And The Tinfoil Noose" was reprinted in 1976 in "Outlooks Through Literature" by James L. Pittman and Edmund James Pierce.
************************************************
"Too bad Schwartz couldn't have been here," I said.
Flick grunted, busy with his change counting. We both knew that Schwartz had been shot down over Italy. They never found him.
The above text appears in the last chapter. An interesting note that in the movie, "Great American Fourth of July" during the 'blind date' scene, Shep and his blind date Pamela, Schwartz and his date Clara Mae, are watching the movie "Love is a Many-Splendored Thing". Clara Mae says to Schwartz "This is so romantic. It's just like us." In the movie William Holden and Jennifer Jones fall in love and Holden goes off to war and never returns and in real life Schwartz goes off to war and never returns.
