Description: "It's a long way from a large, luxurious rambling estate in the Connecticut country side to 77 Sunset Strip, but Efrem Zimbalist, Jr. made that journey, traveling many different roads, during the life he so engagingly recreates in this memoir. His parents, Alma Gluck and Efrem Zimbalist, acclaimed for their artistry throughout the world, provided their son with a childhood of comfort and security - and, of course, music."

"Zimbalist's memoir abounds in anecdotes about show business, family, and travels in the United States and abroad. But what most distinguishes this book is that, whatever the topic, Zimbalist writes with exceptional clarity, grace, precision and sincerity. There are no ghosts hovering over his narrative."--BOOK JACKET.
