Does anyone know of a good Jackie Gleason Biography book? Art Carney's was well written..it was very detailed about his childhood-adult life, radio jobs, wounded war leg, depression, heavy drinking, new marriages, awards etc etc--but it was done tastefully. The author (Michael Seth Starr) kept his opinion out of it (well mostly) & filled the book with information *not just rumors* & stories from Art's friends/co workers & Art himself.
However, the few books about Jackie I've skimmed through seem to talk down about him.
Anyone have any suggestions?
