==Background information==
*The book is a hardcover in dust jacket release, executed in the oversized (12.3"×0.86"×11.05") coffee table format.
*The release of the title came a year too late to precisely coincide with the 40th anniversary of the film, so intended by the publisher originally as their solicitation blurb attests to. The book authors cited induced writing delays, which ultimately took the book three years to complete, from start to finish. 
*Since the film is considered by many as the best of the entire franchise, the book has by and large seen a very favorable reception as well.
