Edited by Carl Japikse, this book continues to forge the trail set by Fart Proudly, presenting satirical writings by great authors that are routinely overlooked in our modern schooling. Ambrose Bierce was chosen because he is probably the best American author you have never heard of -- and because he wrote some of the funniest satires and tall tales penned during the 19th century. Bierce saw the attitudes and conventions of American society as dead dogs that needed to be deodorized -- and he was just the man to do it. This collection contains such stories as A Revolt of the Gods, The Baptism of Dobsho, and My Favorite Murder.
