Illustrated with political cartoons. From the Dust Jacket: "'There are two ways to become an authority on humor,' notes Gerald R. Ford. 'The first way is to be one of the perpetrators. You know them: comedians, satirists, cartoonists, and impersonators. The second way is to be the victim of their merciless talents. As such a victim, I take a backseat to no one as far as humor is concerned. In Humor and the Presidency [Gerald Ford, 38th President of the United States] lightheartedly ruminates on the link between laughter and leadership, discussing the importance of humor in the political process - and retelling many of his favorite funny stories.'" .

Store description
About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
