  <default_description>&lt;div&gt; With impeccable timing, outrageous humor, irreverent wit, and a superb sense of the ridiculous, Groucho tells the saga of the Marx Brothers: the poverty of their childhood in New York's Upper East Side; the crooked world of small-time vaudeville (where they learned to carry blackjacks); how a pretzel magnate and the graceless dancer of his dreams led to the Marx Brothers' first Broadway hit, &lt;i&gt;I'll Say She Is!&lt;/i&gt;; how the stock market crash in 1929 proved a godsend for Groucho (even though he lost nearly a quarter of a million dollars); the adventures of the Marx Brothers in Hollywood, the making of their hilarious films, and Groucho's triumphant television series,&lt;i&gt;You Bet Your Life!&lt;/i&gt; Here is the life and lunatic times of the great eccentric genius, Groucho, a.k.a. Julius Henry Marx.&lt;/div&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I treasure this book.  The witticisms actually pour out of this book faster than the reader can savor them.  Groucho Marx pens this memoir as only Groucho can, with the same insults and wisecracks that marked his uniquely superior brand of comedy for decades.  For example, near the beginning of the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/65265776">more...</a>]]></body>

It's a lot more like getting a chance to spend a day with Groucho by the pool, listening to him tell whatever stories come to mind, in a variously chronological fashion. Interesting and good fun.  ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is the 1989 trade paper that i read n probably 1990 or so... might have been the first Hollywood bio i read, and i can't think of another to be honest.<br/><br/>fun stuff, Groucho was great, even though i was scared of his movies when i was little (And pretty much still am).]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I love the Marx Brothers, and this book offered a look into the life of Groucho, Harpo, and Chico.  However, this book did have alot of boring moments that draged on for a long time.  I liked it, but wouldn't recomend it to someone who isnt a Marx Brothers fan.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I never fully appreciated the Marx Brothers comedy.  This is the only book in a long time that I would think about all day long anticipating getting out of work so I could go home and read some more.]]></body>
