This is the Steve Martin we didn't know about. What his molding experiences were as a child, his love of magic, his experimentation in comedy and performing, his years at Knott's Berry Farm, and so on. He shares a lot of his early years, and shows a Steve Martin that was serious, dedicated to his craft and determined to do things the right way. This book is a history of his years of stand up, before the movies, before the fame.

Facinating look inside a very talented man!

I love the fact it is UNABRIDGED and read by none other than Steve Martin. It is nice to hear about his trials and tribulations in audio form direct from the author himself!!!

I finished this book over the course of 3 of my lunch breaks at work. Its a great book. The whole time I was reading I could hear Steve Martins voice in my head saying the words. The pictures in the book were a nice touch to the story, they acted as mile markers, so you didn't get lost. Any fan of Steve Martin should read this book, its great. From his start to disney world, to the very last page, it was hard to put down.
