Hardback. Introduction by Edward Leeson. Drawings by Nick Hardcastle., The Folio Society. Author: Introduction by Edward Leeson. Drawings by Nick Hardcastle.Binding: HardbackPublished: The Folio Society, 2013Condition:Book: GoodJacket: Slipcase: GoodPages: GoodMarkings: Previous ownerThe Folio Book of Humorous Anecdotes presents a curated collection of witty, eccentric, and sharply observed moments drawn from history, literature, and public life, offering a refined entry in the genre of comic miscellany. Introduced by Edward Leeson and illustrated with lively drawings by Nick Hardcastle, the volume chronicles the absurdities and ironies that have amused generations-from courtroom blunders and political gaffes to literary quips and theatrical mishaps. Each anecdote instructs the reader in the art of timing, understatement, and verbal precision, arguing that humor remains one of the most enduring forms of cultural insight. The book illustrates how laughter bridges eras and personalities, capturing the human tendency to stumble, exaggerate, and self-parody. Hardback. Seller Inventory # 2025100012966-SECONDHAND
