...sweet spot between Grease and Hair. Movie composer Marc Shaiman (South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut) makes his Broadway debut with a score that skillfully mimics the era's perky pop ditties, and director Jack O'Brien has put together a slick, high-spirited production.

The editors are also not above a little politically correct editorializing in the footnotes, as witness their comment on Wilson's "totally unjustifiable anger" with the IRS, the subject of his 1963 polemic "The Cold War and the Income Tax." According to whom was it "unjustifiable," much less "totally...
