"In this first biography of the ... cartoonist, written with exclusive access to Addams's intimates and his private papers, we finally meet the man behind the famed cartoons and circling rumors. Here is his surprising childhood in New Jersey, the cartoon that offended the Nazis, the friend whose early death Addams long mourned. Here are his wives, the stories behind his most famous--and some of his most private--cartoons, and the Addams whom even his closest friends didn't know"-- Provided by publisher.
