{"product_id":"ross-and-tom-two-american-tragedies","title":"Ross And Tom: Two American Tragedies","description":"Here, at last back in print, is the classic dual biography of Ross Lockridge and Thomas Heggen, two authors who achieved sudden fame and fortune and then self-destructed. Ross Lockridge, the author of the spectacularly best-selling Raintree County, and Thomas Heggen, the creator of Mister Roberts, both were thrust in the 1940s into unexpected fame and money. Each was young and inexperienced in the ways of the world. John Leggett explores their lives, their loves, their friendships, and their writing and publishing experiences to discover what ultimately and tragically failed them. Ross and Tom portrays two gifted writers and their final descent into that Fitzgeraldian crack-up where \"in the real dark night of the soul it is always three o'clock in the morning.\"\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0306809923\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0306809923.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Leggett, John\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
