Scheduled by Oxford University Press, USA, for release in the summer of 2012 is the book Loverly: The Life and Times of My Fair Lady by Dominic McHugh.

"A captivating book due to the tremendous amount of new information supplied in its exciting narrative. While My Fair Lady seems in retrospect like an inevitably perfect musical, McHugh reveals that its creation was fraught with many potential roadblocks and creative differences. A fascinating read!" --Michael Feinstein
