This book is hilarious! As a living historian, it's helpful for me to not only know what topics were discussed in history, but also what jokes were told. Having studied history in depth, I "get" the background for these jokes and find them highly entertaining.
I beg to differ with the previous reviewer (who may possibly have not read more than the first page or two). Though this book includes some jokes that we would consider racially slanted, the majority are not. And even the racial jokes, when understood in their historical context, are almost all non-offensive.
