The Devil’s Dictionary (Illustrated)

You’ve heard about it; now the opportunity to have your own copy of the classic satire by mysterious turn-of-the-century writer Ambrose Bierce -- priced at less than a pack of chewing gum. Bierce penned this tongue-in-cheek lexicon a half-dozen years before he famously disappeared while riding with Pancho Villa in Mexico. Illustrated with 30 new pictures.
