A very worthwhile read. An extensive view of the American Theatre's straight and musical-theatre works of the period. This is an extensive chronicle and very recommended. The occasional photograph by Martha Swope or drawing by Al Hirschfeld contribute a sense of occasion. Harold Prince suggests this book as a valuable resource, with facts and figures nowhere else available documenting 20 years of New York theatre.
