Published in San Francisco in 1903, this slim collection gathers the opinions of ‘the Observer’, a newspaper humorist with something to say about everything. He considers the influence of the pipe, the science of weather, the mannish woman, a wonderful typewriting machine, the drawbacks of being a king, the perils of flashlight photography and the wonders of spiritualism.
Light turn-of-the-century American newspaper humour, best enjoyed a sketch at a time. Download the free EPUB.
