It consists of several short pieces, all non-fiction as I recall, written by MP. The longest is the one consisting of his comments about the making of the film, hence the name GODFATHER PAPERS. Well worth reading, IMO.

'The Godfather Papers' is not entirely about 'The Godfather', it does have a chapter or two about Puzo's memories of writing the book and getting involved in the screenplay for the first 'Godfather'; casting, meeting Coppola, the incident with Sinatra, etc.
The book also includes a lot of short stories Puzo wrote over the years. Basically, the book was a way for Puzo to make more money off the 'Godfather' phenomenon at the time. Nothing wrong with that.

. And further about the papers you actually asked: I can't help you on that.
