Robert S. Bader is the editor of Groucho Marx and Other Short Stories and Tall Tales and a writer and producer for television.
"As far as I'm concerned, the Marx Brothers practically invented
comedy. And I love this great new book about them by Robert Bader!"
--Jerry Seinfeld, New York Times
"A new benchmark in Marx scholarship." --Los Angeles Times "Who
would have dreamed that there could be much, much more to learn in
still another book about the Marx Brothers? Not I. And yet, Robert
Bader--focusing on the under-researched vaudeville days of the
hilarious siblings--has gone where no man went before, discovering
a treasure trove of Marxiana to delight the hearts and minds of
those of us who can never get enough." --Dick Cavett "I have read
virtually every book ever published about the Marx Brothers. I have
even written about them myself. Robert Bader's book is a
revelation." --Leonard Maltin, author of Leonard Maltin's Movie
Guide and The Great Movie Comedians
"In discussing the brothers' personal and professional
accomplishments, Bader gives each man his due individual and group
justice. Dozens of good books have been written on these brothers .
. . and Bader's rich volume joins those." --CHOICE "In Four of the
Three Musketeers Robert S. Bader shows that Groucho, Chico, Harpo
and Zeppo had nothing on Minnie Marx--the booster, nag and agent
who set them on their way to fame." --Wall Street Journal "A book
that no devoted Marx Brothers fan should be without . . . Four of
the Three Musketeers is a fascinating, indispensable book that
details the evolution of one of the greatest comedy teams as they
went through a long, bumpy trial by fire." --Montreal Times
