The December 19, 2011, issue of Publishers Weekly includes a review of John Caps’s forthcoming book Henry Mancini: Reinventing Film Music.

“In this lively, syncopated survey of Mancini’s movie music, Caps offers a comprehensive critique of the composer’s film/TV scores and hit albums.”

Henry Mancini, which analyzes the circumstances surrounding the creation of such classics as “The Peter Gunn Theme” and the score to Breakfast at Tiffany’s, will be published in March 2012.
