Peck’s Compendium of Fun, by George W. Peck. Comprising the Choicest Gems of Wit, Humor, Sarcasm and Pathos of America’s Favorite Humorist. I want to write more on this one someday, but for now, know that Peck was (1) a newspaper editor, (2) the creator of Peck’s Bad Boy, (3) the mayor of Milwaukee, and (4) the governor of Wisconsin.
