Bøger af C. Robert Haywood

By reputation, Kansas isn't the funniest place on earth. But it has its share of humor. In this book Robert Haywood reveals the lighter side of a state that's too often pegged a collection of sober-minded moralists struggling to find Utopia among the stars. He explores what has passed for humor in good times and bad and divulges what makes Kansans laugh.

'In this fascinating social history, Haywood unravels the web of values, ideas, and philosophies that tied East to West.' --Journal of American History
