Cocktails were swilled as writers, humorists, actors, and critics poked fun at culture, the arts, and one another. In this lively tribute, today’s readers will come to understand why Robert Benchley, George S. Kaufman, and Dorothy Parker represent the epitome of quips and comebackswit that still packs a punch decades later.The book, Bon Mots, Wisecracks, and Gags: The Wit of Robert Benchley, Dorothy Parker, and the Algonquin Round Table [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9781616087135 in Paperback by may be ordered in bulk quantities.
