About this Item

FELDKAMP, Fred [edited by] [239] pp. Doubleday & Company, Inc. 1946 7 5/8" x 5 1/4" Jacket design by Paul Galdone VG/ VG Drawings by Paul Galdone, Leo Hershfield, John Mackey, Charles D. Pearson, George Price, Barbara Shermund, Saul Steinberg, and James Thurber. Stories by James Thurber, Robert Benchley, A.J. Liebling, Heywood Bround, Stanley Walker, Stewart Holbrook, and others. This collection of witty and urbane stories runs the gamut; some are humorous and others fact. The common denominator is their appeal to gentlemen. Topics include sports, crime reporting, World War II (then a recent event), the English, poker, and travel. It is indeed a mixture and a fine one at that. There is an all-star list of contributors, including James Thurber, Robert Benchley, and John O Hara. The twentieth-century droll stories which follow have one common denominator: their interest to male readers. --Fred Feldkamp.
