About this title

Synopsis

This work has the dubious distinction of being one of the most often pirated books of all time. Once considered obscene (it reprints a large number of the most 'savoury' limericks known), it is also very funny due in great part to the author's dead-pan commentaries and 'Geographical Index'.
