Publisher's Synopsis
In 1893, Farmer Wesley Parsons apparently laughed to death over a joke told in Laurel, Indiana. He laughed for nearly an hour. He then perished two hours after the incident. 99 of the greatest jokes ever told, by our best-loved comedians. Witty one-liners through to stand-up classics, guaranteed to have you in fits. Please note - no comedians were hurt in the making of this book (although some had already passed away before publication). Contains adult humour.
