American wit and humor
by James R. AswellNot on Booklabria yet
"This book rounds up some of the most telling examples of the American sense of humor during our age of great laughter--from Revolutionary times when its voice began to burst out clearly, through the turmoil of the Frontier and Civil War periods when it was at its most exuberant, to the 1890's when it was in danger of prattling itself into whimsy and commercial jokesmithing." -page xi.
