The full title (via Amazon.com) is: "Alex North, Film Composer: A
Biography, With Musical Analyses of a Streetcar Named Desire,
Spartacus, the Misfits, Under the Volcano, and Prizzi's Honor"
The "Afterword" section of the book was written by Jerry Goldsmith.
Just judging from the title, I suspect it's a fairly scholarly look
at North's career, with a more personal memoir by Goldsmith at the
end. Might be the author's PhD thesis fleshed out into a book.
The publication date seems to have been pushed back to September.
Interesting selection of scores.
