A hilarious chronicle of all the awful things which have ever happened at Broadcasting House . .

Although he strives for and gets the belly-laugh, the humour is salted with wit . One is left with the impression that Mr. de Manio is a man of deep humanity and understanding who happens to have written a very, very funny book. Size: 8vo.
