"An intimate biography of the great songwriter, this is also a deeply affectionate memoir by one of Johnny Mercer's best friends." ""Moon River," "Laura," "Skylark," "That Old Black Magic," "One for My Baby," "Accentuate the Positive," " Satin Doll," "Days of Wine and Roses," "Something's Gotta Give" - the honor roll of Mercer's songs is endless. Both Oscar Hammerstein II and Alan Jay Lerner called him the greatest lyricist in the English language, and he was perhaps the best-loved and certainly the best-known songwriter of his generation. But Mercer was also a complicated and private man." "Gene Lees deals tactfully but directly with Mercer's complicated relationships with his domineering mother; his tormenting wife, Ginger; and Judy Garland, who was the great love of his life. Lee's highly personal examination of Mercer's life is sensitive as only the work of a friend of many years could be to the conflicts in Mercer's nature."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
