This book chronicles the extraordinary life and artistic achievements of Charlie Chaplin, the comic genius who created the iconic Tramp character. Beginning with his early years and rise to international fame in Hollywood, it presents a visual record of his career through a collection of photographs, many previously unpublished from the Chaplin family archives.
Chaplin offers commentary alongside these vivid images, revealing the drama of his life, insights into early filmmaking, glimpses of high society and low life, and the rags-to-riches nature of his success story. It touches upon the romantic cycle of his life, including the undeserved persecution he endured and his eventual happiness. This pictorial biography documents a life lived in the spotlight and behind the camera.
