Canongate Books - Hardback - $32.99
The final
volume in this collectable and highly praised series - with an afterword by
Charles Schulz's widow.
While the
50-year run of the Peanuts newspaper strip is obviously the heart and soul of
Charles Schulz's career, he also created a large amount of Peanuts material
that didn't run in the strip. This bonus 26th volume of The Complete Peanuts
collects all of Schulz's non-strip related Peanuts art: storybooks, comic book
stories, single-panel gags, advertising art, book illustrations, photographs
and even a recipe.
With close
to 1,000 Peanuts images included, all created by Schulz himself, no true
Peanuts library would be complete without this final, celebratory volume of The
Complete Peanuts. As a fitting end to the volume - and the series - Schulz's
widow, Jeannie Schulz, provides an emotional afterword to the volume as well.
About the author:
Charles M.
Schulz was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1922 and grew up in Saint Paul. He
gained a worldwide reputation as a cartoonist for his work on Peanuts. He died
in 2000.
