Publisher's summary

It's not often that an acclaimed historian is revealed to be the author of light verse, but John R. Alden here presents us with 1,707 couplets, quatrains, and other terse verse in the tradition of Ogden Nash. His subject matter ranges from dinosaurs to computers, from Confucius to Darwin, from Jonah to George Bush. His wit, wisdom, and powers of observation are sure to amuse and delight. A sample: "How did Arkman Noah / Provide for protozoa?"
