MISREPRESENTATIVE MEN.
ILl.u.s.tRATED BY F. STROTHMAN.
NEW YORK: FOX, DUFFIELD AND CO.
(_Second Edition._)
OPINIONS OF THE AMERICAN PRESS.
'One of the most amusing books of the year. Mr. Graham is a fluent and ingenious rhymester, with an alert mind and a well-controlled sense of humour.'--_The Times_ (New York).
'"Misrepresentative Men" shows so high-spirited a mastery of words and metre (the result, we take it, of laborious days) that it will be read with pleasure by the most fastidious lover of what is amusing.'--_The Nation_ (New York).
'Mr. Graham's verses are exceedingly clever, and Mr. Strothman's ill.u.s.trations add to their cleverness.'--_The Bookman_ (New York).
'A very amusing little book, by that cleverly humorous versifier "Col. D. Streamer," whose "Ruthless Rhymes for Heartless Homes"
has had such a deserved vogue.'--_Town Topics_ (New York).
'The most amusing biographical caricatures of celebrities that we have read for a long time. There is not a dull line in the entire collection.'--_The Bookseller_ (New York).
'These satirical verses have the same ingenious humour as the writer's previous rhymes. The book is altogether refres.h.i.+ng.'--_Town and Country_ (New York).
'The hit of the season.'--_The Lexington Herald._
'A most attractively humorous work.'--_The Pittsburg Despatch._
'A little book of really clever verse.'--_The Milwaukee Sentinel._
