Publisher's Synopsis
The first volume of a series containing previously unpublished Thurber material comprising drawings, cartoons, essays, autobiographical and biographical sketches. This book is arranged primarily by theme, rather than by chronology or genre.;The editor has tried to use Thurber's own instincts for anthologising, mixing various kinds of writing, article, essay, review, cartoon and parody. Included are Thurber's parody of "The Postman Always Rings Twice", an imagined meeting with Henry James and his comments on women, dogs and E.B.White.
