Beschreibung
When Robert Benchley died in 1945, his obituaries read like love-letters from the world. Here is a collection of his short, whimsical, hilarious articles which show why.With befuddled and heroic bewilderment Benchley faces his problems. Among others are the mislaid locomotive, a dachshund who sued for libel, and a songbird who was "e;out to get"e; Benchley.It ends with five sizzling chapters of his "e;Untold Story,"e; starting when, as an innocent young man from the country (Boston), he arrived in the city (New York) looking for pitfalls. (It was a holiday and they were all closed.)"e;...it is a saga of the gaga, and probably not far from his masterpiece."e;-New York TimesA rare gem of a book!Illustrated by Gluyas Williams
