From the back cover: The background story of Harry Marshard is as warm, vigorous, colorful and outstanding as his music.

It wasn't just one long jump from drummer in his high school orchestra to America's foremost society dance band leader. There was time out for World War II, where he enlisted as a private, served in the 42nd Infantry, Rainbow Division, and came home, after the Battle Of The Bulge and the European Campaign, an Infantry Major. This is typically Harry Marshard. There is a happy determination about the man that would have put him at the top of whatever field he might have picked. We can only be grateful he chose the wide field of music, where his contagious joy can be shared with so many.

The demand for Harry Marshard's music has grown by such leaps and bounds that he is now a big business. Marshard Music with headquarters in Boston, is one of the biggest music enterprises of its kind in America. With close to 300 top musicians and a many as 21 units under the Marshard banner, he can now furnish a dance orchestra of from 5 to 50 pieces for just about anywhere on the North America continent, south of the DEW line, and does.
