The creator of Animal House tells the real story of the fraternity that inspired the iconic film—a story far more outrageous and funny than any movie could ever capture.
Writing with a freshness and joy that make Dartmouth 1960 feel like a beer-soaked rock-and-roll heaven on earth, Chris Miller tells the real story of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity as no one else could. Seal, Doberman, Otter, the legendary Moses (he of the burning bush)—these titans and dozens of others come alive again, terrorizing the administration, taunting cops, surviving their own lunacy, and challenging the squareness of a stifling time. The Real Animal House is the perfect antidote for a conventional age much like today.
"A breezy, chuckle-worthy read, and a must for the Animal House fan." —Courier-Post
"Action-packed … A boozy holler of a book, with a great soundtrack." —Kirkus Reviews
