In this entertaining and insightful essay, Mario Puzo chronicles his rise from struggling writer to overnight success as author of The Godfather.

Featuring a foreword by Ed Falco, author of The Family Corleone

With equal parts cynicism and humor, Puzo recounts the book deal and his experiences in Hollywood while writing the screenplay for the Academy Award-winning movie. Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, Peter Bart, Marlon Brando, and Al Pacino all make appearances—as does Frank Sinatra, in his famous and disastrous encounter with Puzo.

First published in 1972, the essay is now available as an ebook. A must-have for every Godfather fan!
