Hardcover. Condition: New. Orderbook -- wwb -- AL CAPP: A LIFE TO THE CONTRARY. Michael Schumacher and Denis Kitchen. Bloomsbury Publishing, New York, 2013. 342 pp. With 78 ills. (17 col. ). 25 x 16 cm. LC 2012-27508 ISBN 9781608196234 In English. Publisher's description: More than thirty years have passed since Al Capp's death,… and he may no longer be a household name. But at the height of his career, his groundbreaking comic strip, Li'l Abner, reached ninety million readers. The strip ran for forty-three years, spawned two movies and a Broadway musical, and originated such expressions as "hogwash" and "double-whammy." As a satirist, Capp was frequently compared to Mark Twain. Though Li'l Abner brought millions joy, the man behind the strip was a complicated and often unpleasant person. A childhood accident cost him a leg-leading him to art as a means of distinguishing himself. His apprenticeship with Ham Fisher, creator of Joe Palooka, started a twenty-year feud that ended in Fisher's suicide. Capp was a known sexual predator. Late in life, his politics became extremely conservative; he counted Richard Nixon as a friend, and his gift for satire was redirected at anti-war protesters on campuses across the country. With unprecedented access to Capp's archives and a wealth of new material, Schumacher and Kitchen have written a probing biography. Capp's story is one of incredible highs and lows, of popularity and villainy, of success and failure-told here with authority and heart.
