Collected & Annotated by
TRAVIS BOGARD

Berkeley: East Bay Books, 1993

Once again Travis Bogard has given us another insight into the heart and mind of Eugene O'Neill. Bogard's comments on the songs and their relationship to the plays are an enlightening and thrilling experience. The Songbook is invaluable... I only wish José Quintero and I had this collection when we started the revival of the O'Neill plays thirty-five years ago.

The Eugene O'Neill Songbook is published on eOneill.com with the generous permission of Jonathan Elkus of East Bay Books. The Songbook, complete with sheet music, can be purchased from Subito Music.
