The Male of a Cow: An Anthology of Traditional Irish Humor FROM THE PUBLISHER
Not just another collection of Irish jokes, this anthology explores the unique national topics the Irish have traditionally found to be humorous and the history of Ireland's oral tradition. It lays bare the anatomy of the famous Irish Bull and explores the rich range of humor, past and present, of a nation "always at odds with Matter." With sections on the press, famous writers, and the royals, this book provides the quotes, jokes, limericks, epitaphs, and proverbs that make Ireland's national sense of humor one of a kind.
Author Biography: David Ross is the author of A Little History of Scotland and A Little History of England.
