Mice in the Beer - Ward, Norman

Clean, tight, unmarked; light age tanning to pages; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Norman Ward burst onto the literary scene in 1960 with the publication of Mice in the Beer, which earned him the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour. The original 45 pieces take aim at just about every field of human endeavour. They, and Louis de Niverville's biting illustrations, expose the ludicrous in topics as varied as space, travel, death and taxes, psychological theories, advertising, man's best friend, and many others. Ward's skill at capturing the subtleties of the gentle art of satire is as fresh today as it was when the first printing of Mice in the Beer took Canada by storm.
