Biography of Spike Milligan

Synopsis:
Spike Milligan was one of the most gifted, creative individuals of our time, and is remembered as a true comic genius. However, many people are unaware that he battled throughout his adult life against anxiety and depression, neither of which he was able to conquer. He allowed his biographer and close friend, Pauline Scudamore, complete and unfettered access to all his files and correspondence, as well as to his home and family. She also interviewed scores of his friends and colleagues to be able to present a full and well-rounded picture of a greatly misunderstood but hugely popular man. His anarchic writing and performing established him as one of the great anti-authoritarian figures of British comedy, but he paid a high price for the pleasure he gave to others.
About the Author:
Pauline Scudamore was a close friend of Spike Milligan and his family for many years, and this book was written with his complete co-operation. He allowed her to have access to all of his books, papers and letters and ask any questions of him she might wish. Pauline also wrote Dear Robert, Dear Spike which is based on the correspondence between Spike Milligan and Robert Graves.
