About This Book

Christopher Morley showed an unusual talent for humorous writing in many different settings. Here is an example. His description of a commencement address in the Garden of Eden, is both priceless and timeless.

This volume, recently reformatted to meet current ebook standards such as having an active table of contents, contains the full text of the following manuscripts, as well as a whimsical "biography" written by Morley himself:

Parnassus on Wheels
The Haunted Bookshop
Mince Pie
Plum Pudding
In the Sweet Dry and Dry
Where the Blue Begins
Shandygaff
Pipefuls

He was the son of a mathematician, and spent a considerable amount of his early life in Baltimore, Maryland, which help explain many things. Based on the high quality and large quantity of his work, he is a fine addition to AfterMath's Baltimore Authors series.
