The Enigma of Al Capp

Rating:
Summary: Al Capp: American Icon?
Review: Al Capp was the creator of "Li'l Abner", which in my opinion was the greatest comic strip ever. Capp was a very complicated man, and this book does a credible job of telling his life story. Much of this information was already know to me, however. For Capp fans only.

Summary: hatchet job
Review: This book is filled with inaccuracies. Further, it does not attempt to explain what it purports to: his "enigma." One example: the picture on the original cover (Capp with a woman) is never credited or captioned.
