by Adrian Cowell (Author)
A master of the Wildean epigram, Groucho Marx achieved worldwide fame for his sharply irreverent humour. Put-downs, observations and asides were the currency in which he traded, and this was never better illustrated than in his extensive correspondence, much of which is kept in the Library of Congress. This book contains letters which he sent to people ranging from the President of the United States to his own daughter's boyfriend, and replies which he received from humorists such as James Thurber and S.J. Perelman.
