Comments: From the introduction, "In this modest volume will be found bits, tricks, patter and routines for every type of cabaret performer, magician, compere, comedian, ventriloquist, comedienne or layabout! Some of the material is unsuitable for use at a Vicar's tea party, but then, had you wanted that sort of material, you would have chosen one of my many other available titles."
