When Volume I of this historical review of the Moulin Rouge Hotel was published there were no plans for a second volume. There was a great deal of interest in bringing back the band/music... the flashing lights... the happy days! Quite a few developers were making plans to freshen up the existing facilities and even add additional delights.
But the tragic fire exploded all hopes of a "born again" Moulin Rouge in all its glory. There had been so many wonderful plans and enthusiasm the author/compiler felt it important to make public and historic recordation how much interest there had been. Volume II reveals it all via newspaper clippings of each and every event including the apprehension of the arsonists.
