A compilation of a little-known but very influential humoris,
By tbone1@io.com (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Best of Kin Hubbard: Abe Martin's Sayings and Wisecracks, Abe's Neighbors, His Almanack, Comic Drawings (Wisconsin) (Paperback)
For twenty-five years, Kin Hubbard wrote a nationally syndicated daily one-panel cartoon with two epigrams. His work was admired by such luminaries as Groucho Marx, S.J. Perelman, James Whitcomb Riley, Franklin P. Adams, and others. His epigrams were good enough to merit five entries in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations. David S. Hawes has cherry-picked his best cartoons, epigrams, and short pieces into a hilarious volume that will leave you combing used book stores for copies of Abe Martin's annual books. What strikes me most about Hubbard's humor is not just the wipe-your-eyes laughter, but how little people have changed since he wrote these sentences.
