From the publisher:

The R.Crumb Handbook tells the story of how a loser-schmuck became a cultural icon, and is more than just another celebrity tell-all sexploitation. This brand new hardback collection of original cartoons with never before published work, takes the reader on a unique journey through the life and times of one of the 20th century's most notorious and influential counter culture artists.

"Crumb's material comes out of a deep sense of the absurdity of human life." - Robert Hughes, Art Critic. The only underground cartoonist to be accepted by the fine art world, the R.Crumb Handbook is divided into the four enemies of man: FEAR; CLARITY; POWER; OLD AGE; Working with his old drinking buddy and co-author Pete Poplasky, the four chapters are easily digested. With over 400 pages of cartoons and photographs, Crumb's often controversially-regarded views toward Disneyland, growing up in America, hippie love, art galleries, and turning 60 are revealed.
