English Illustrated Magazine.—“A deliciously humorous volume.”
Catholic Times.—“The fun is fast and furious.”
St Paul’s.—“It is very funny.”
These are a few opinions taken at random from hundreds of notices.
Says the Daily News (Hull):—“The funniest book we have read for some time. You must perforce scream with huge delight at the dry sayings and writings of the funny little man who has actually killed people with his patter and his antics. Page after page of genuine fun is reeled off by the great little man.”
Bachelor Ballads and other Lazy Lyrics. By Harry A. Spurr, Author of “A Cockney in Arcadia.” With Fifty Illustrations by John Hassall. Crown 8vo, art cloth, 3s. 6d.
St James’s Gazette.—“Distinctly clever.”
Globe.—“Mr Spurr goes in for humour, and with very considerable success.… Altogether he is as funny as he is fluent. Mr Hassall’s illustrations are also genuinely comic.”
Nottingham Guardian.—“The fun is genuine and hearty.”
