James A. Michener, a Biography

Everyone knows the name, but scarcely anyone knows the man. James A. Michener, the world's best selling story teller, didn't begin writing until he was 40, but with Tales of the South Pacific, his first book, he hit the jackpot. Each succeeding bestseller made him a millionaire many times over. Here for the first time is Michener's life story. This biography, written with Michener's cooperation, explores the drive behind the man's success, his relationships with women, agents, editors, publishers and friends. The book was published a dozen years before Michener's death.
