Klappentext

Irving Berlin's songs have been the soundtrack of America for a century, but his most profound contribution to the nation is to Broadway.

Tracing Berlin's humble beginnings on the lower-east side to his rise to American icon, Irving Berlin's American Musical Theatre will delight theater aficionados as well as students of music and popular culture, and anyone interested in the story of a man whose life and work expressed so well the American dream.
