Bruce Minney: The Man Who Painted Everything

In the days of Mad Men, men's adventure magazines thrived. With titles like Stag, Male, For Men Only, and Man's Illustrated their crazy covers and even crazier stories were distinctly American. Bruce Minney spent 20 years working as an illustrator for men's adventure magazines painting beautiful women, gorillas, lions, tigers, bears, elephants, alligators, headhunters, Nazis, airplanes, aircraft carriers, tanks, guns, and lots of explosions but hardly anyone knows who he is. He worked another 20 years painting covers for all kinds of paperbacks including western (The Lone Ranger), historical romance, action, military (Hornblower), biography, and Gothic horror. He truly was the man who painted everything. With over 380 illustrations, this book provides an overview of Bruce's career.
