DIARIES 1969-1979 The Python Years

New York: St. Martin's Press, (2006). First U.S. edition. Hardcover. Michael Palin has kept a diary since newly married in the late 1960s, when he was beginning to make a name for himself as a TV scriptwriter (for 'The Two Ronnies, David Frost, etc). Monty Python was just around the corner. This volume of his diaries reveals how Python emerged and triumphed, how he, John Cleese, Graham Chapman, the two Terrys--Jones and Gilliam--and Eric Idle came together and changed the face of British comedy. 650pp, illustrated from photographs, with index. A near fine copy in a near fine clean dust jacket. Item #14228
