  This is an anthology of modern comic non-fiction (selected from memoirs, reviews, newspaper columns, etc), ranging from G.K. Chesterton through Stephen Potter to Clive James and Miles Kington. Like Patricia Craig`s other compilation, The Penguin Book of British Comic Stories , the pieces are chosen to illustrate a specifically British (and Irish) kind of humorous approach to the world, and the choice is supported with a critical introduction.
