Quad's Odds

Charles Bertrand Lewis

4.9/5 (15631 ratings)

Description:A collection of humorous squibs and essays from the Michigan newspaper humorist Charles Bertrand Lewis (better known by his pseudonym M. Quad), including the humorous firsthand account of his experience in an 1866 Mississippi steamboat explosion that first brought him to fame. The vein of Lewis's humor will not be unfamiliar to the careful reader of Mark Twain's earlier burlesques; this collection includes a humorous sketch on dealing with a subscription book agent. The lively and studiously crude illustrations from L. H. Crumb are quite enjoyable, though Crumb seems little noticed (not found in Hamilton in any case); later business histories suggest he was the principal of the Acme Engraving Co. in Chicago, specializing in newspaper work.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
