A joyous and giftable collection of Jewish humor from every source imaginable: literature, jokes, children’s books, magazines, comics, newspapers, and others—from Mad Magazine to Philip Roth.
Bursting with quick wit and hilarity, this definitive, illustrated volume is beloved by countless readers and considered the must-have book for comedy fans and anyone looking for a good laugh. All the greats are here—from the Marx Brothers and Lenny Bruce to Shel Silverstein and Neil Simon—plus plenty of obscure but still laugh-out-loud comics, as well as literary and historical humor.

From the Back Cover
Two rival businessmen meet in the Warsaw train station. "Where are you going?" says the first man.
"To Minsk," says the second.
"To Minsk, eh? What a nerve you have! I know you're telling me you're going to Minsk because you want me to think that you're really going to Pinsk. But it so happens that I know you really are going to Minsk. So why are you lying to me?"
Four men are walking in the desert.
The German says, "I'm tired and thirsty. I must have a beer."
The Italian says, "I'm tired and thirsty. I must have wine."
The Mexican says, "I'm tired and thirsty.
I must have tequila."
The Jew says, "I'm tired and thirsty. I must have diabetes."
