The Complete Works of Artemus Ward Part 2, War

by Artemus Ward

Artemus Ward, the beloved humorist who brought laughter to the Civil War, returns in The Complete Works of Artemus Ward Part 2, War By Artemus Ward. In this collection of stories and sketches, Ward takes us on a humorous journey through the Civil War. We follow him as he travels to the front lines, meets with generals, and witnesses the horrors of war. But even in the midst of chaos, Ward never loses his sense of humor. He brings us his unique brand of absurdist satire, which helps us to see the war in a new light. The book is full of Ward's trademark malapropisms and tall tales. He tells us about the time he met General Grant, the time he got lost in the woods, and the time he was captured by the enemy. But he also uses his humor to make a serious point about the war. He shows us the absurdity of war, the suffering of the soldiers, and the futility of it all. The Complete Works of Artemus Ward Part 2, War By Artemus Ward is a must-read for anyone who loves humor or the Civil War. It is a funny, insightful, and moving book that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
