Michaelis, a noted biographer and journalist, offers this comprehensive and detailed account of Charles M. Schulz, creator of the beloved Peanuts comic strip, and perhaps one of the most misunderstood of 20th century American artists. The author emphasizes how the strip evolved through Schulz's experiences growing up in the Great Depression and during World War II. The these of struggle, survival and hardship permeate the strip in a subtle way, and this biography, which is aimed at a general audience, underlines the collective experiences of the country during challenging times.
