THE NEW YORK TIMES ON THE SOPRANOS
Simultaneously released in book form with free sample chapters on-line

New York, NY -- For Immediate Release -- The first trade book ever published on "The Sopranos" has arrived. Entitled, THE NEW YORK TIMES ON THE SOPRANOS, it features the cream of the crop of The New York Times media reporters telling the inside tale of the show's success from producer David Chase's early efforts to its eagerly anticipated second season. Filled with candid photos of the actors and actresses, such as the Emmy-Award winning Edie Falco, James Gandolfini and Lorraine Bracco, the trade paperback traces the show's trajectory from cable favorite to the mainstream sensation.

Special attractions in the book include: an essay by Stephen J. Cannell, producer of such seminal shows as The Rockford Files and Wiseguy, and among the first in Hollywood to use the screenwriting skills of David Chase; a complete analysis of the cast and roles by the former President of the International Crime Writers Association, J. Madison Davis and a captivating new introduction by Stephen Holden, senior reporter for The New York Times.

The Sopranos, in its second season, is watched by over 10 million Americans and tells the compelling and often violent history of a contemporary mob family headed by Tony Soprano.

The book, THE NEW YORK TIMES ON THE SOPRANOS, is a trade paperback ($9.95), with photographs. This book has not been prepared, approved or licensed by any entity that created or produces The Sopranos and is unaffiliated with HBO and Chase Films.

Free sample chapters are available at www.ibooksinc.com.

Contributing author J. Madison Davis is available for interviews about the book.
