Buchwald, Art
YOU CAN FOOL ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME
Publisher: G. P. Putman's Sons, NY, 1985
Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. First Edition. Hard Cover. ISBN: 0399131043 FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING. Hardcover with price-clipped dust jacket. 8vo (6.5 x 9.25"). 332 pp. Quarter bound in publisher's red buckram cloth over gray boards, gilt lettering on spine. Gray endpapers. Illustrated by Steve Mendelson. FINE/NEAR FINE. This is a collection of Art Buchwald's humorous insights into the problems with the government in Washington. Mr. Buchwald claims to be neither a Democrat or a Republican, but is against whoever is in power. As Ronald Reagan's biggest fan (because he thought he would provide more material for humor) it was logical that Buchwald would provide a running commentary on the Reagan administration. "You Can Fool All of the People All the Time - but you can only fool Art Buchwald half the time. In this, his twenty-first book, Mr. Buchwald takes another look at the Reagan administration, to see if it is funnier now than it was four years ago. The answer is a resounding yes!". Drawings. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall

Twain, Mark
English as She is Taught: with a Biographical Sketch of Author by Matthew Irving Lans
Publisher: Mutual Book Company, Boston, 1901
Near Fine with no dust jacket. First American Edition. Second Printing. Hard Cover Publisher's full green cloth, green and red lettering and green decoration on cover, all edges deckle. BAL 2nd state (corrected "five" on page 16). In 1887 Caroline LeRow, a school teacher, collected and published, under Twain's sponsorship, an outrageously funny collection of genuine writings by her students. It was first published in London, with the commentary Twain had written on it for Century Magazine, in 1887. An edition was published in the United States contemporaneously, but did not include any of Twain's commentary. This edition, in 1900, was the first in America to include Twain's contribution. It was reprinted in 1901 to correct some errors in the text. This is the corrected printing. [BAL 3465] . Covers very lightly rubbed, corners very slightly bumped, unmarked, tight, square and clean. NEAR FINE. A remarkably fresh copy. 12mo 7" - 7½" tall. 28 pp
