Excerpt from Frontier Humor: Some Rather Ludicrous Experiences That Befell Myself and My Acquaintances Among Frontier Characters Before I Made the Acquaintance of My Esteemed Friends, "the Brownies"Not only is truth stranger than fiction, but it is funnier also. Just as some men have no eye for colors, but are color blind, so some men have no eye for fun, but are fun blind. Happy is the man who can see the humor which bubbles up in daily life doubly happy he who, having seen, can tell the fun to others and so spread the glad contagion ofa laugh, but thrice happy is the man who, having seen, can tell the fun, and having told, can picture it for others' eyes and so roll on the rollicking humor, for the brighten ing of a world already far too sad.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
