Profusely illustrated. Foreword by Rouben Mamoulian. Maurice Chevalier! The beloved boulevardier, the international Frenchman, the troubador who remains the symbol of all that is gay and insouciant and debonair. This is the complete record of Chevalier's career - as a circus acrobat, as a singer of bawdy songs, as the dance partner and lover of Mistinguett, the most celebrated woman in the French musical theatre, and as the first great romantic musical star of sound motion pictures. His life and career is a kaleidoscopic history of some seventy years in show business: the circus, the music halls, the theatre, the silent screen, the great Hollywood musicals, television spectaculars, and, of course, the one-man show, which he pioneered.
