Synopsis

This is a book of amusing verses. A book you can pick up at any time and browse, open anywhere and dip into some abstract or unconventional idea relating to well known personalities or events. How about the feat of climbing Everest. It took man 30000 years, yet within another sixteen years the same man had landed on the moon. And wouldn't you like to send one of those impertinent valentine verses. And there is no doubt that some of the philosphical lines can add to discussions at many a dinner party.There is a wealth of subjects to read about.400 verses in all and added to that, many funny sketches to compliment them.This book makes a great present for anyone from the age of three to a hundred and three.What was Kubla Khan's pleasure dome? What happened to the beef lasagne? Why did Howard Carter miss a trick opening the tomb? What happened to the Three Musketeers? What does Zsa Zsa Gabor wear at home? What really happened to Methusalah?A volume that includes a lot of information that not many people know.Subtle, ironic and very witty, with the odd serious verse thrown in.
