Editorial Reviews

The funniest people I know all seem to have a copy of the Ambrose Bierce classic, The Devil's Dictionary, begun in 1881, which is not Satanic, but is certainly one of the most cynical (yet truthful) collections of bubble-popping definitions for many of our most sacred cows. This edition also contains a considerably longer modern successor to Bierce's classic, by Chaz Bufe, written in the same spirit but updated for the 1990s. Highly recommended to anyone who craves the truth behind the pretense. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Such bitterness, such negativity, such unbridled humor, wit and sarcasm. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
