Synopsis
Need a good laugh? Your doctor couldn't prescribe anything better than this king-size, fun-filled treasury of good American humor. Here is the best of the best...the finest of contemporary humor by the greatest of American humorists...sifted from our native literature by the one man superbly qualified to make such a choice. Bennett Cerf has kept America laughing for years...through his lectures, articles, columns, and books. Here he ranges happily through our literary treasures and, with the unerring instinct of a master, makes a connoisseur's selection...a monument to the American comic spirit. Here you will find the golden best in stories, poems, scenes from hit plays, parodies, feuds, and satires. Here is humor from New England and the Midwest, from New York and the Southland, from the Far West to beyond the Twelve-Mile Limit. Among the writers represented in this star-studded cyclopedia of humor are such distinguished names as: James Thurber, Robert Benchley, E. B. White, H. Allen Smith, Max Shulman, Don Marquis, Wolcott Gibbs, and John O'Hara.
