520 8 $a"If so many of the most influential voices of our century were themselves influenced by this man, why is it that hardly anyone knows who he is? In this, the first study of the man behind the myth, Oliver Trager explains Buckley's life and career and the enormous following he developed in the entertainment community as well as the reasons behind the obscurity into which the man and his work disappeared after his death in 1960."--BOOK JACKET.
