"Told through first-person reminiscences and more than seventy original illustrations this book reveals the astonishing life story of Al Jaffee 1921-2023 one of America's most influential and beloved cartoonists. Jaffee's inventive work has enlivened the pages of MAD Magazine since 1955. To date he has pickled three generations of American kids in the brine of satire and continues to bring millions of childhoods to untimely ends with the knowledge that parents are hypocrites teachers are dummies politicians are liars and life isn't fair. Jaffee's work for MAD has made him a cultural icon but the compelling and at times bizarre story of his life has yet to be told." - dust jacket. 226 pages.
