"But He Doesn't Know the Territory"

[slight bump to top of spine and bottom rear corner, gift inscription on ffep obliterated with black marker; jacket nice and clean, but with a tiny chip at the top right-hand corner of the front panel]. The last of the author's three memoirs, this one deals entirely with the creation of his most beloved work, with Willson telling his own story of how he and his wife Rini "lived through the events leading up to our watching our only child -- a Broadway musical comedy called The Music Man -- come out onto the New York stage in front of God and everybody, make its bow and speak its piece." Maybe the best memoir (certainly one of the funniest) ever written about the conception and production of a classic Broadway musical.
