Michael Palin
Michael Palin's diaries of his life before, during and after Monty Python. This first volume of his diaries reveals how Python emerged and
triumphed, how he, John Cleese, Graham Chapman, the two Terrys - Jones
and Gilliam - and Eric Idle, came together and changed the face of
British comedy. But this is but only part of Palin's story.
