Bygone Buffoonery

Did you know that mankind was nearly doomed when treasonous animals

on Noah’s Ark attempted a mutiny? Or that the entire Roman Empire

nearly unraveled when a crackpot Caesar swooned for—and married—his

horse? Were you aware that a flamboyant cowboy subdued bloodthirsty

gunslingers with a two-step? What about the vaudevillian hack juggler who

received his first standing ovation in a coma? Don’t freak if all this comes as

news. In Bygone Buffoonery, Jeff Charlebois provides centuries of laughs as

he rewrites the past in witty, short stories you won’t find in any dusty library.

“From the moment I picked your book up until I laid it down

I convulsed with laughter. Someday I intend reading it.”

Groucho Marx
