Description
"Spoof is stronger than fiction" says For Better of For Worse humorist Lynn Johnston, and in Never Stand Behind A Loaded Horse, Leacock merit medallist Gordon Kirkland drives the point home with funny-bone accuracy. Kirkland’s syndicated newspaper column is no stranger to Canadian and US audiences, and in this premium collection.
