About this book
Dividing his time between academic pursuits and humor writing, Canadian author and scholar Stephen Leacock had a vivid, kinetic imagination. His playful mental prowess is on full display in the collection Moonbeams From the Larger Lunacy, which veers between a wide array of topics, ranging from suffrage to literary satires of overwrought purple prose.
