- Summary
- "Emerson Foote is a man who accidentally fell into the business of advertising, in the early 20th century...His legacy helped inspire a book, a major motion picture, and most recently a television series...While Foote's fame was well established by his leading major ad agencies, that is only a part of what makes him such a fascinating figure in the history of advertising...The chain of events laid out hee, and even the words chosen to chronicle his life, clearly paint a portrait of a truly extraordinary man. This story was written by dictation, then transcribed, and the unedited manuscript has been sitting in a drawer for a quarter century. With a little light editing, presented to you is a story that demands to be told." -- Back cover
