| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Little Masterpieces of American Wit and Humor, Volume I" by Thomas L. Masson is a collection of humorous writings and anecdotes compiled from various renowned American authors, likely originating in the late 19th century. The anthology showcases contributions from significant figures such as Washington Irving, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Mark Twain, and Benjamin Franklin, capturing the wit and whimsy of American humor through a diverse range of excerpts, poems, and narratives. At the start of this anthology, the editor offers insight into the selection process, emphasizing a blend of well-known and lesser-known pieces that highlight the colorful characters of American imagination. The opening sections introduce readers to amusing historical figures, starting with Washington Irving's portrayal of Wouter Van Twiller, who is characterized as a ponderous and humorously indecisive governor. These early tales establish a playful tone, setting the stage for a delightful exploration of the quirks and follies that define the characters and situations in the accompanying collections of wit and humor, thereby inviting readers to appreciate the rich tradition of American comedic storytelling.
