Ernie in Kovacsland: Writings, Drawings, and Photographs from Television's Original Genius

Had the pleasure of meeting Edie Adams son, Josh Mills, at a recent book signing.
Purchased the book, took it home and could not put it down. It’s filled with photos, articles, etc. about the daffy world of Ernie Kovacs. A trailblazer & true pioneer in the world of early TV. He was such an innovator & this book gives you insight into his very creative mind. Do yourself a favor and enter Kovacs Land, as I did!
