Synopsis:

Over 5,000 of the funniest lines of all times, compiled by the editor of Random House Webster's Quotationary, are arranged by speaker, in an unusual and entertaining treasury of the world's great wits.

Random House Webster's Quotationary was hailed by William Safire as "rich in quotationage...a valuable aid to speakers and writers," and is celebrated for its arrangement of quotations by subject for easy reference. Now its editor, Leonard Roy Frank, turns his attention to humor in Random House Webster's Wit & Humor Quotationary, a clever, surprising, and very funny collection of centuries of witty lines.

Quotations are arranged by speaker in this book -- unlike other collections of humorous quotations--so the reader is introduced to the humor of Yogi Berra, Dorothy Parker, Bob Dylan, and many others in a fun, at-a-glance style.
Over 5,000 humorous quotations, arranged by speaker
Extensive subject index makes it easy to find the right quote for any occasion
Includes humorists from all eras and all fields for a thorough look at humor through the ages

About the Author: Leonard Roy Frank, a Brooklyn native, has lived in San Francisco since 1959. A lifetime quotation collector, Frank is also the editor of Random House Webster's Quotationary.
