In this wise-cracking yet candid memoir, Lewis recalls with crystal clarity the highs and lows of his relationship with Dean: their first meeting on a New York street corner one spring afternoon, the early improvised performances in Mob-owned nightclubs, and the giddy days of Hollywood super-stardom, when it seemed the couple's high-rolling lifestyle would last for ever. It didn't. On July 24 1956, Dean and Jerry split and the two men didn't speak to one another for twenty years." - taken from back cover Notes: Originally published: New York: Doubleday, 2005; London: Macmillan, 2006.
