This is a memory-driven “travelogue” down the road (roads?) taken by the author in the pursuit of a dream that culminated in the writing of 8 full-length musicals, along with 12 one-act musicals for children. You will encounter the people he met along the way, the good souls and the scoundrels. If the latter seem to outnumber the former, do not regard that as, necessarily, a sign that the author has lost faith in the inherent goodness of people. For all we know, he may not have.
