A producer and I made a deal for the pilot plus episodes to be broadcast on USA Network. Because he liked my script, Martin Scorsese-the legendary director-signed on as executive producer. A hot young director, also enamored of the script, signed on as well. At the request of USA Network, I wrote a two-hour version. On the basis of this script, a wonderful cast was assembled.\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"calibre3\">\n    \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Then USA Network and the producer decided that major changes must be made. I had no interest in the show in its new form, and I withdrew from association with it. I wished them well-and turned to the task of realizing the original concept in book form. I hoped <i class=\"calibre1\">both<\/i> versions would succeed in their different media.\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"calibre3\">\n    \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Subsequently, Marty Scorsese also expressed the desire to exit the series. I am grateful to Marty for being so enthusiastic and insightful about the show we wanted to make. For a man of his accomplishments, he is refreshingly humble, the very definition of grace, and anchored to real-world values in a business where many are not.\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr style='margin: 30px 0; border-top: 1px solid #eee;'>\n<p style='text-align:center;'>Read the full book by downloading it below.<\/p>\n<p><a href='https:\/\/epub-book.com\/download\/download-is-starting\/?url=https%3A\/\/mega.co.nz\/%23%21QtIlXSSY%21ekg_U-OCKrKCeiwmgFZQAZw7RNni-CtoWKDaYqfORTQ' class='download-btn' target='_blank'>DOWNLOAD EPUB<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Book Preview \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Although I&#8217;m a chatty kind of guy, never before have I found it necessary to explain up front how a book came to be written.
