Fine unread condition blue boards with silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Bob Dole; Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Foreword and About the Author. "Famous for his delectably dry humor, Senator Bob Dole brings us the ultimate bipartisan book: some of his favorite witticisms, hilarious remarks, and wry observations of the great political figures of this century. Great Political Wit will have readers rolling on both sides of the aisle." - from the rear outer jacket. "Considering that when I was Secretary of Transportation, Bob once said the Federal Highway Administration used my biscuit recipe to fill potholes, I'm tempted to give this book a bad review. But the fact is that Great Political Wit captures the Bob Dole I know and love - war, funny, with a unique ability to laugh at himself." - Elizabeth Dole, President, American Red Cross. "Bog Dole's political career may not have taken him to the White House, but he did pick up some great stories along the way. In this delightful collection, the longtime United States senator shares his favorite anecdotes, witticisms, and reminiscences. From the campaign trail to the Oval Office, from smoked-filled rooms to the chambers of the Capitol, Bob Dole surveys a century of political wit. There are bon mots from Calvin Coolidge, Winston Churchill, Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, and a host of other political figures. Bob Dole introduces each section with mirthful moments from his own experience, displaying the gift for wry humor that has made his such a favorite guest on late-night talk shows. A jovial - and completely bipartisan - compendium, Great Political Wit is a connoisseur's selection of political repartee at its best." - from the inner front jacket flap. Bowles, Michael J.N. (jacket photograph); Traina, Jean (jacket design); Abbate, Judith Stagnitto (book design) (illustrator). …
