And Now All This

"All the History You can Remember," say the authors, "is in this book"; and the result is an uproarious satire upon textbook history and our confused recollections of it "forty years on" - an historical harlequinade in which nonsense plays lead, and "howlers," jests, and jibes tumble over each other from title to "finis." The illustrations by John Reynolds are ludicrously apt.
