This massive hardcover volume is now the definitve account of the life and work of the one and only Harvey Kurtzman, the man who brought the world Mad and so much more. Written by Kurtzman's friend and one-time publisher, Denis Kitchen, who also currently represents the Kurtzman estate, in collaboration with the prolific cultural historian and biographer, Paul Buhle. Kitchen is an accomplished cartoonist in his own right, one who was influenced by Kurtzman, and who was active during the glory days of Underground comix, and so is more fully capable of appreciating Kurtzman's achievement than your average biographer. This book has it all: miraculously preserved childhood drawings, early comics and illustration work, Kurtzman's glory days in comics, the creation of Mad, Humbug, Trump, and Help! followed by Little Annie Fannie and much, much more, including plenty of rarities that will astound and delight Kurtzman fans. And now available for an amazing price! What's not to like?
