Book Presentation:
''The temptation to write about yourself is irresistible, especially when you are prodded into it by a crafty publisher who has slyly baited you into doing it with a miserly advance of fifty dollars and a box of cheap cigars'' - Groucho Marx

Groucho Marx''s autobiography is a rags-to-riches story with a difference. The most outrageous and voluble of the legendary Marx Brothers had a career that stretched from Vaudeville to gameshow, conquering Hollywood on the way. From the triumphs and disasters of a life spent in show business to his unconsummated loves, Groucho''s story is told with humour and wit and in Groucho''s own unique style.

As TS Eliot said of him: ''The mind boggles''.
