AMERICAN HUMOR & SATIRE

This collection of tales, poems, and stories brings together the writings of Washington Irving, Mark Twain, O'Henry, James Thurber and other masters of our unique American brand of satire and humor. A well-chosen cast of expert storytellers, including William Saroyan and Ogden Nash, makes this amusing literary assortment sparkle and come to life through homespun twang, urban wit, and true-to-life regional dialects. Some readings are enhanced with background information while others, unfortunately, receive only brief author/title introductions, a minor flaw in an otherwise sterling production. J.A.
