Artemus Ward's Panorama - Artemus Ward - Bog

Artemus Ward's Panorama: As Exhibited At The Egyptian Hall, London (1869) is a book that presents the humorous and satirical writings of American humorist Charles Farrar Browne, who wrote under the pseudonym Artemus Ward. The book is based on Ward's successful stage show, which was performed at the Egyptian Hall in London in 1869. The show consisted of a large painted scroll or ""panorama"" that was unrolled to reveal a series of comic illustrations and satirical commentary on contemporary life and politics. The book includes the full text of Ward's humorous monologues, as well as reproductions of the panorama illustrations. Ward's witty and irreverent style, which pokes fun at everything from American politics to British manners, has been praised for its influence on later humorists such as Mark Twain.
