N2  - This book contains Sondheim's most famous lyrics. Sometimes he has written the music and the lyrics for a musical, other times just the lyrics. There are photographs of the people involved in the musicals, anecdotes and commentary by Sondheim on the musicals and his lyrics, and some facsimiles of his manuscripts and music
