A laugh on every page. If you're not familiar with Lewis Grizzard he has sometimes been lauded as a modern day Mark Twain. This book combines three of his books into one volume where he pokes fun and jokes about his early childhood and honors his mamma in her trials of being a single mom after the Korean war. He also makes jokes and shares personal experiences on the game of golf. Even for a non-golfer this book is hilarious. Yankees take their fair share of ribbing in the third book but even if you're from the north you'll see the humor and laugh right along side Lewis. This is a quick and fun book to read, I highly recommend it if you need a little laughter in your life.
