Description: Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB and UNREAD condition book which is RARE, hard to find and OUT OF PRINT and a classic television and film memoir by comedian SID CAESAR, who recounts his groundbreaking work on the live television programs "Your Show of Shows" and "Caesar's Hour" and his long struggle with alcoholism--the book is a collectible STATED FIRST EDITION and FIRST PRINTING Signet Books mass market paperback copy. This book is in SUPERB and UNREAD condition and has a laminated cover which is attached at the spine edges of the first and last pages, some light fading on the spine edge and just slight shelfwear otherwise but NO other significant imperfections! The book is titled Where Have I Been? An Autobiography and it was written by SID CAESAR with BILL DAVIDSON; it was published by Signet Books in October 1983 and is a collectible STATED 1st EDITION and 1st PRINTING with a publication line reading 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9.Sid Caesar. Yeah. In the fifties he had catapulted to dizzying heights of TV fame and fortune, earning over a million dollars a year as the Saturday night King of Comedy. But after each show the funniest man alive was a non-so-funny drunk, dowing bottles of scotch, swallowing handfuls of pills, abusing and terrorizing everyone around him--writers, co-stars, family and friends.Here, Caesar bares it all: how devastating insecurity and the pressures of success led to his twenty-year alcohol and drug addiction...how a staggering inner struggle finally and triumphantly brought him back from rock-bottom despair to a dynamic new life. It is a story of traumatic ups and downs, filled with nostalgia and studied with anecdotes about the Golden Years of "live" television. It entertains, it inspires, and it reveals everything the world loved about Sid Caesar--and the horror it never suspected.A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book! Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding! Also be sure to check out all of my other great books currently listed on ebay auctions--I can combine shipping for multiple purchases!
