Review:
...the career of Hugo Friedhofer is brought to life for the first time through this collection of essays, personal letters and interviews...an appropriate and valuable appreciation of a life well spent in film music. (Soundtrack)

I recommend Danly's The Best Years of His Life...it is an appealing and accessible introduction to Friedhofer. (Journal Of Film Music)

An engaging blend of biography, filmography and interview...an essential purchase for soundtrack enthusiasts. (Film Review)
