In this collection of 17 short essays, Charles S. Brooks (1878-1934), with the usual panache and wit, which he also displays in his comedies, describes funny incidents that can happen to people on holidays or in everyday life. His two “frightful” comedies, “Wappin’ Wharf” and “At the Sign of the Greedy Pig”, are already in our catalogue as full-cast stage plays. (Summary by Sonia)     [chương_files]
