Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The creator of Li'l Abner goes under the microscope in this handsome monograph. The National Book Award-nominated author of Darconville's Cat and Three Wogs delivers this slender-yet-rich monograph on the controversial life of cartoonist Al Capp, creator of Li'l Abner.
