1906257, + Plus frontis. Text drawings. Decorated title page. Uncut. 8vo. Original full green gold stamped cloth binding, slightly spotted at edges. Finley Peter Dunne (1867-1936) was an American humorist and writer from Chicago. His fictional 'Mr. Dooley' expounded upon political and social issues of the day from his South Side Chicago Irish pub and he spoke with the thick verbiage and accent of an Irish immigrant from County Roscommon. Dunne's sly humor and political acumen even won the support of President Theodore Roosevelt, who was a frequent target of Mr. Dooley's barbs. Indeed Dunne's sketches became so popular and such a litmus test of public opinion that they were read each week at cabinet meetings in Roosevelt's White House. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! HUMOR 3

200258 p. Charmingly illustrated. Text in English and Pennsylvania-Dutch. 8vo. Color printed stiff wraps. First Edition. AS NEW. Wilhelm Busch (1832-1908) was a beloved German author, poet, painter, and cartoonist. His greatest ambition was to emulate the Dutch and Flemish masters - Rubens, Hals, Etc. Instead, he "stumbled into immortality", as the first German Federal President, Theodor Heuss, once put it, through a few caricatures he was asked to do for the satirical magazine "Fliegende Blaetter" that was founded in Munich in 1848. He soon started to add his own humorous verses, and his cartoons became longer and more elaborate. ** He can be regarded as the Father of the Modern Comic Strip, and wherever an Englishman would quote Lewis Carroll's "Alice", a German is likely to quote Busch. Although famous in his later years, he lived quite withdrawn and despised the fuss he thought was made about him. This is his classic work, rendered into the Pennsylvania-Dutch dialect by the great German-American poet John Birmelin (1873-1950). An entertaining way to learn the dialect spoken by Amish, Mennonites, and others to this day. We are the U.S. distributors of the English and Pennsylvania Dutch edition.
