Very good in a very good dust jacket with some light rubbing and small tears. The basis of the 1968 motion picture directed by Richard Fleischer and starring Tony Curtis as the mass murderer De Salvo and Henry Fonda as the chief detective that got the murderer to confess. Arthur Jacob Arshawsky 1910 - 2004 better known as Artie Shaw started out his career in music at thirteen as a saxophone player and switched to the clarinet at sixteen. He gained experience and skill while on the road at a young age which lead to steady work in the 30s as a session musician and performing with various bands and orchestras and on radio. His first critical acclaim came with his performance of “Interlude in B-flat" at a swing concert at the Imperial Theater in New York in 1935. And during the swing era Shaw's big band enjoyed such enduring hits like Cole Porter's "Begin the Beguine" and Hoagy Carmichael's "Stardust" "Back Bay Shuffle†"Moonglow†"Rosalie" "Frenesi" and "Summit Ridge Drive." Throughout his career he worked with many of the great jazz musicians and vocalists of his day including Helen Forrest Mel Torme drummers Buddy Rich and Dave Tough guitarists Barney Kessel Jimmy Raney and Tal Farlow and trombonist-arranger Ray Conniff. A charismatic and complicated man Shaw was married eight times most notably to actresses Lana Turner Ava Gardner Doris Dowling and Evelyn Keyes Betty Kern the daughter of songwriter Jerome Kern and ‘Forever Amber’ author Kathleen Winsor. In 2004 he was presented with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. In addition to his musical career and accomplishments he is the author of an autobiography ‘The Trouble With Cinderella: An Outline of Identity’ three short novels; ‘I Love You I Hate You Drop Dead!’ a collection of short stories ‘The Best of Intentions and Other Stories’ and an autobiographical novel titled ‘The Education of Albie Snow’ which sadly never made it to publication.
