Steven recently received a personal letter from Georgia Carroll Kyser, (wife and vocalist in orchestra) stating that she'd received her prerelease copy, and is very grateful to him for documenting Kay's life and being so precise in doing so. The UNC Library Curator, Eileen McGrath, has stated after reviewing the book, that universities and public libraries will want this book. Ish Kabibble's granddaughter and Harry
Babbitt’s son have also given this delightfully informative book praise for its’ significant contribution

“Your book is even better than I espoused!”  

“The color plates of the sheet music and movie posters, and everything else, is exceptional.  Let's put it this way from my point of view,  your book is "excellent," Thank you for your wonderful effort to preserve the legacy of Kay Kyser and his era, much as we are committed to preserving the legacy of Glenn Miller and all of the great talents of the 20th Century. “

 

Professor Samuel Umland

Professor of English and Film,  University of Nebraska at Kearney

The book—remarkably, the first published full-length biography written on the once immensely popular band leader — in addition to its many fascinating biographical details, is loaded with rare and unpublished photographs and interviews, sheet music and magazine covers, and the definitive Kyser discography.  Kay Kyser, a very private man with many contradictions, Beasley explores Kyser’s post-celebrity life in fascinating detail.  I must congratulate Steven for his outstanding accomplishment, and commend his tenacity.”
