Synopsis

Will Rogers was one of the world's best-known celebrities in the 1920s and 1930s. Not only was he was the #1 male box office leader at the movies from 1933 until his death (ahead of Fred Astaire, Clark Gable and James Cagney), but also he was the most widely read and frequently quoted internationally syndicated columnist of his day with 40 million readers (the population of the US at that time was 120 million). Get to know this America icon a little better with "The Words & Wisdom of Will Rogers", a fun and interesting compilation of Roger's own words. If you are interested in finding out a little more about the person behind the great man, but don't want to make it a scholarly effort of digging through the archives, then you will find this an engaging and enlightening little book. From selected speeches to personal letters to his columns to a selection of "quotable quotes", you'll get a deeper and more personal understanding of this fascinating figure and his place in history. ;
