Description: "Peter Goodman began working with Gould on Morton Gould: American Salute more than a year before Gould's death. He spent many hours interviewing Gould as well as his family, friends, and colleagues. Upon Gould's death, his family allowed Goodman access to his files, diaries, records, and tapes. The result is a full, detailed, and well-rounded story, one that is, to quote from Tim Page's foreword, "no hagiography, but rather an empathetic but unsparing portrait of a full man, with all the complexities and contradictions any such portrait ensures.""--BOOK JACKET
