Max Wilk. Moyer Bell, $12.95 (294pp) ISBN 978-1-55921-032-4

Profiles of composers and lyricists illuminate Jerome Kern, Ira Gershwin, Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Irving Berlin. According to PW , ``Readers who recall Wilk's The Wit and Wisdom of Hollywood (1971) should anticipate the same nostalgic kicks and anecdotal richness in his hefty new book.'' (June)
