by Arthur Marx (Author)
This book tells the warts and all story of the comedian Groucho Marx. Born into a poor immigrant family, Groucho ad-libbed his way from low life vaudeville through the Hollywood big time to achieve legendary status. But the cigar-wielding master of the instant insult was a comic of bewildering contradictions. Groucho was a family man who also had an eye for young women - and with every marriage his wives got younger. Explaining the huge disparity in ages he remarked a man is only as young as the women he feels . He is described as both a big spender and a thrifty man in this book by his son Arthur. Other books by this author include Groucho , The Nine Lives of Mickey Rooney and The Impossible Years .
