A curious man : the strange & brilliant life of Robert 'Believe It or Not' Ripley

Thompson, Neal2013
Book
Robert Ripley's life is the stuff of a classic American fairy tale. Buck-toothed and hampered by shyness, Ripley turned his sense of being an outsider into an appreciation of the weird and wonderful. His pioneering firsts in print, radio and television tapped into something deep in the American consciousness and ensured a worldwide legacy that continues today.
