Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of anecdotes and humorous stories from the life of the author, a comedian. The author, who made his name in the competitive world of New York comedy, recalls his unusual path to success and how his physical appearance, which prohibited most common career paths, led him into the world of entertainment. He fondly retells his experiences meeting famous figures such as Henry Ward Beecher, Ulysses S. Grant, Grover Cleveland, James G. Blaine, and the Prince of Wales. These stories offer valuable insights into historical figures, cultural attitudes, and the nature of fame at the turn of the century. The author's journey is one of resilience and optimism and his unique experiences serve as a reminder that success comes in various forms and can be found in the most unexpected of places.
