Annotation:
SCHULZ AND PEANUTS is a rich and fascinating look into the troubled life of Charles Schulz, a man who never lost his feelings of futility and frustration, even as his comic strip, Peanuts--a name that he loathed, created by a newspaper editor--became a beloved staple of American culture and a billion-dollar-a-year industry.
