Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)If you've never read a book about Richard Rodgers, this one may interest you -- otherwise, stay away. The trouble is that almost everything here is quoted from previous books, with the exception of some pretty basic discussions of Rodgers as a composer. There is practically no insight into Rodgers the man, and only a little into Rodgers the artist. You would do far better reading Rodgers autobiography MUSICAL STAGES (which is relied upon far too heavily in this book), or Hugh Fordin's Hammerstein bio GETTING TO KNOW HIM. All in all, this book is not awful -- just awfully dull.
