Chuck Jones' impressive oeuvre includes—beyond his preserved legacy of fine art, animation art, and film—his work as an author. An articulate man whose mind was characterized by agility, intense curiosity, humor, and a wickedly subversive streak, Jones literally devoured thousands upon thousands of books during his lifetime. His favorite author was Mark Twain.
