Hard Cover. Condizione: 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.…

Hardcover. [10], 341 p.; 21.5 cm. `The Christian candidate will have to work very hard indeed to win his election. But there are some things he will not have to do. First of all, he will not have to be dishonest. Some advisers will no doubt urge him to be just a little dishonest in order to gain certain votes. But elections are won more often by gaining the full confidence of the people through careful statements than by attempting to mislead them. In the second place, he will not have to put himself under obligation by accepting campaign contributions from wrong sources.' (p. 69) -- `What is required of us is nothing strange or new. What is required is that ownership, and mutual responsibility one to another, and full participation in decision-making in the vital areas of life be regained by the people as they work together in groups. From such experiences come "direct and responsible relations with one another as persons." In such a society economic processes can be made to serve "the needs of the community as a whole." Methods of doing this are tried and tested. They are not unknown. Americans through the years have formed voluntary organizations for the purpose of working together for almost every conceivable purpose. And it is upon the vitality and the broadened scope of those voluntry organizations of the people that this middle way with its restoration of strength to the people themselves can be built.' (p. 126) -- The personal side of his story appears in his books, The confessions of a congressman 1947, and, The strange case of Richard Milhous Nixon 1972. Good ex-lib. edgeworn ivory cloth.
