Although the text is brief, no illustrations were spared. The many plates illustrate all points necessary, and each of the points illustrated are explained in the text with reference to that particular illustration. In addition to that plates there are many caricatures of famous men included. This book illustrates the art of caricature, a long-established form that uses exaggeration to make a satirical or humorous point. Moving from observation to simple aspects of drawing, the style's strong technical principles as well as an explanation on caricaturing the face feature by feature are discussed. Exploring tools, mediums, and materials from the quill pen to digitized imaging, this unique handbook will enable beginning, intermediate, even advanced artists to learn the method and develop their own style.

This is not an official book of the CIA. It's not even true (or is it?). It surely isn't serious (or is it?). But it sure is funny! In fact, it should be in the "Humor" section (or is it?). I couldn't stop laughing, even when the author was being serious (or was he?). I guarantee (or do I?) you'll be laughing too (or will you?). Enough already. If you skip this one, you will be missing out on something (or will you?)

Nothing so frightens a man as the announcement that he is expected to a toast on some appallingly near-by function of VIP's, co-workers, family and friends. All ideas he may ever have had on the subject melt away and like a drowning man he clutches furiously at the nearest solid object. This book is intended for such rescue purpose. While the larger part of the contents is humorous, there are inserted many quotations of a serious nature which may serve as appropriate literary ballast. The jokes and quotes gathered for the toaster have been placed under the subject headings where it seemed that they might be most useful, even at the risk of the joke turning on the compilers. To extend the usefulness, cross references have been included. With 516 pages, this book will cover pretty much any and all roasts, banquets, balls, weddings, parties, or whatever other situation may come along, with the exception of maybe a funeral.
