Hard Cover. Condition: Near Fine. Near Fine. 4th Printing. 4th printing (Ford-Smith, Folio 76 #1140). Includes publisher's slipcase. Fine book in near fine slipcase. Slipcase faintly scuffed. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 2003 Hard Cover. 288 pp. A collection of humorous vignettes by various authors, with contributions by William Shakespeare, Samuel Johnson, Charles Dickens, Winston S. Churchill, the Queen of England, G.K. Chesterton, P.G. Wodehouse, Mark Twain, Dorothy Parker, Groucho Marx, etc., etc. Ever since Chaucer's day, when the host of the Tabard Inn in Southwark rose to welcome the Canterbury Pilgrims with a joke, the After Dinner Speech, designed, if possible, to reduce the assembled company to helpless merriment, has presented the ultimate challenge. The best speakers are natural story-tellers - Gerard Hoffnung, reading a selection of letters from continental hoteliers: 'There is a French widow in every bedroom affording delightful prospects'; John Mortimer telling the woeful tale of a man's numerous unsuccessful attempts to murder his wife: 'At no time did Mrs Scott feel that the magic had gone out of their marriage' - and in this collection of post-prandial treasures you will find the very best of them, from Groucho Marx on how to resist a femme fatale, to Ralph Steadman surreally addressing the Lewis Carroll Centenary Dinner. 'Goodness', said a friend on greeting Mae West, 'where did you get those beautiful pearls?' 'Goodness', replied Mae, 'had nothing to do with it.' Shaggy dog stories, practical jokes, sporting anecdotes, rousing toasts, travellers' tales and risque reminiscences rub shoulders in this essential collection with real-life revelations and moments of history. Among the guests are Peter Ustinov, Jilly Cooper, Brian Johnstone, Charles Dickens, Dorothy Parker, Robertson Davies, Henry Grady and A.P. Herbert. There is food and drink in abundance. There is gentle reflection and endearing charm as well as defiant frivolity. Above all there are stories for every occasion - witty, absurd, momentous, philosophical, fascinating, poignant, and forever entertaining.…

Drawing on the vast collections of the National Museum of the American Indian, Creation's Journey retells the story of native life from the Arctic to the Tierra del Fuego, and from childhood to old age. Using objects, historical photographs, and the voices of Native Americans past and present, the book reawakens our senses to values and traditions that once prevailed. 220 color and 120 duotone photos." ; Contents: Introduction: a backward glimpse through the museum door -- Growing up Indian: Osage childhood, Giving thanks for what we have as Indians -- Visual prayers: The symbolism of feathers -- Vision and virtuosity: The legacy of baskets, Reading ledger art -- Across the generations: Native gold, Spanish gold -- Epilogue: Art through Indian eyes. ; Published in conjunction with an exhibition held at the National Museum of the American Indian, New York City, Oct. 1994-Feb. 1997 ; "Tom Hill, a native of Upper Sandusky, is a veteran of the United States Marine Corps and a former board member of the Wyandot County Historical Society.

The objects come from 200 different tribal groups from North, Central, and South America, dating from 3200 B.C. to the 20th century. Among the objects on view are Kiowa, Osage, and Yuma cradleboards; Sioux and Comanche dresses; and Potawatomi, Seminole, and Huichol dolls." ; "In [this] memorable book, Indian people use words, actions, and artifacts to represent themselves as fully human, free at last from the soul-cramping and spirit-reducing tests of authenticity and purity."-The New York Times Book Review; For the first Americans, a record of the past is written in the objects that were a part of daily life. Values, traditions, and beliefs are embodied in works of Native creativity, from children's toys to leaders' war shirts, and from Arctic kayaks to masks made by the people of Tierra del Fuego. Using objects from the museum's collection, historical photographs, and the voices of Native Americans past and present, Creation's Journey reawakens us to ways of life and thought that once prevailed in the Americas, and that are still observed in many Native homes and communities." ; FINE/FINE.
