- Summary:
- Although every literary tradition has its own rich vein of humor writing, there's something about American humor that sets it apart from the pack in terms of accessibility and lack of pretension. This volume includes writings from such luminaries of the genre as Mark Twain, Oliver Wendell Holmes, and Edgar Allan Poe, and the brevity of most of the collected pieces makes it easy to take a short reading break whenever you could use a good laugh.
