Description

From the New York Times bestselling author of Seinfeldia, the definitive story of the creation and legacy of the hit show Parks and Rec, with exclusive interview content from its cast, crew, and creators and an introduction by Nick Offerman

The definitive story of the hit show Parks and Rec from the people who know it best. Interviews from cast and creators like Greg Daniels, Michael Schur, Amy Poehler, Nick Offerman, and more that provide insight into the show's creation, never-before-told stories from key players, and an exploration of its legacy as an enduringly lovable modern comedy classic full of optimism and heart.

Through new and exclusive interviews with Schur, Daniels, Poehler, and Offerman, who have all agreed to participate, as well as other cast and crew, Armstrong will tell the story of how Parks and Recreation came to be: how it grew from The Office's success and Obama-inspired optimism; how producers assembled one of TV's most lovable casts but barely survived a mediocre first season; how it found its voice by getting more political and more romantic; and how it became a cultural force despite middling ratings during its network run, going on to become a television savior of the Trump era and a modern classic.

Lovingly told and deeply researched, Parks and Rec is the ultimate history of the show that taught us what's important in life: friends, waffles, work.
