Delphi Complete Works of Stephen Leacock (Illustrated) Synopsis

The internationally acclaimed Canadian humorist, Stephen Leacock produced over thirty books of light-hearted sketches and essays. The beguiling fantasies and hilarious tales of 'Literary Lapses' (1910), 'Nonsense Novels' (1911) and 'Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town' (1912) helped launch Leacock's career as a master writer of humour. He also produced learned and well-researched non-fiction books, including important historical works on his beloved home of Canada and reviews of literary figures. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Leacock's complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
