pp. xviii, 260. Decorated title page. 8vo. Original full green gold stamped cloth binding. Spine slightly darkened. Finley Peter Dunne (1867-1936) was an American humorist and writer from Chicago. His fictional 'Mr. Dooley' expounded upon political and social issues of the day from his South Side Chicago Irish pub and he spoke with the thick verbiage and accent of an Irish immigrant from County Roscommon. Dunne's sly humor and political acumen even won the support of President Theodore Roosevelt, who was a frequent target of Mr. Dooley's barbs. Indeed Dunne's sketches became so popular and such a litmus test of public opinion that they were read each week at cabinet meetings in Roosevelt's White House. HUMOR 3 x
