Jeux d’Esprit,
Written and Spoken, of the Later Wits and Humourists. Collected and Edited by Henry S. Leigh.
“This thoroughly congenial piece of work ... Mr. Leigh’s claim to praise is threefold: he has performed the duty of taster with care and judgment; he has restored many stolen or strayed bons-mots to their rightful owners; and he has exercised his editorial functions delicately and sparingly.”—Daily Telegraph.
