Description
Book Synopsis
One of the few books concerned solely with the humor of a single state, this volume includes samples of what North Carolinians have laughed at -- and with -- from 1709 to the present. It is a rich anthology of Tar Heel anecdotes, homespun quips, hilarious stories, folklore, exaggerations, and observations. In this wide range of humor, Walser has provided a valuable recording of American folklore and the social history of North Carolina.Review Quotes
"The prescription for Tar Heel Laughter: Take in large or small doses as you feel the need, rest between guffaws, read aloud when you can tie down a listener, pass off what witticisms you can as your own, keep in a safe, dry place and never lend. You'll never get it back." -- Raleigh News & Observer
