Book Description
This book documents the wild and crazy years the author spent growing up with the superstar of comedy, Steve Martin. No one could better chronicle Steves enchanted life than his oldest friend, Morris Walker. You will re-live the times that Steve Martin himself refers to as 'The best years of my life!' as well as all of his accomplishments since then. These are the adventures of two young boys who were dedicated to comedy as a way of life since the day they met in the 6th grade. From Steves earliest days as the class clown through his struggling years on the road to his phenomenal success as a stand-up comic, movie star and producer -- they were as inseparable as loving brothers and became best friends for life. Every chapter is filled with wild and crazy antics, laughter, warmth and more comedy. Followers of Steves brilliant career will love this book because it is not only an authoritative firsthand account, but it is written in a humorous style that demonstrates the warmth and generosity of spirit that few Hollywood personalities are ever able to exhibit. Readers and fans will admire Steve Martin even more as they learn about his early days working at Disneyland to his first job as a writer on 'The Smothers Brothers Show' to becoming the highest paid comedian in the country, starring in over 25 great films. As re-told in 'Steve Martin: The Magic Years', his enchanted life has been an epic adventure in the history of American film and entertainment.

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER • From one of America’s iconic writers, a stunning book of electric honesty and passion that explores an intensely personal yet universal experience: a portrait of a marriage—and a life, in good times and bad—that will speak to anyone who has ever loved a husband or wife or child. Several days before Christmas 2003, John Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion saw their only daughter, Quintana, fall ill with what seemed at first flu, then pneumonia, then complete septic shock. She was put into an induced coma and placed on life support. Days later—the night before New Year’s Eve—the Dunnes were just sitting down to dinner after visiting the hospital when John Gregory Dunne suffered a massive and fatal coronary. In a second, this close, symbiotic partnership of forty years was over. Four weeks later, their daughter pulled through. Two months after that, arriving at LAX, she collapsed and underwent six hours of brain surgery at UCLA Medical Center to relieve a massive hematoma. This powerful book is Didion’ s attempt to make sense of the “weeks and then months that cut loose any fixed idea I ever had about death, about illness ... about marriage and children and memory ... about the shallowness of sanity, about life itself.

Book Description
In this richly detailed and prodigiously researched book, jazz scholar and musician Ricky Riccardi reveals for the first time the genius and remarkable achievements of the last 25 years of Louis Armstrong’s life, providing along the way a comprehensive study of one of the best-known and most accomplished jazz stars of our time. Much has been written about Armstrong, but the majority of it focuses on the early and middle stages of his career. During the last third of his career, Armstrong was often dismissed as a buffoonish if popular entertainer. Riccardi shows us instead the inventiveness and depth of his music during this time. These are the years of his highest-charting hits, including “Mack the Knife” and “Hello, Dolly"; the famed collaborations with Ella Fitzgerald and Duke Ellington; and his legendary recordings with the All Stars. An eminently readable and insightful book, What a Wonderful World completes and enlarges our understanding of one of America’s greatest and most beloved musical icons.
