  One of the Broadway musicals that can genuinely claim to have transformed the genre, West Side Story has been featured in many books on Broadway, but it has yet to be the focus of a scholarly monograph. This book explores the process of creating West Side Story, discussing Bernstein's sketches, early drafts of the score and script, and cut songs.
