Journal Entry 1 by JoolsW from Haworth, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Sunday, August 14, 2011
From the back cover:

"For his many friends and fans, Peter Cook was quite simply the funniest man they'd ever met. Cook's unique gift for laughter and the way he changed the British sense of humour forever has been celebrated in several posthumous biographies, but until now there's been no book by Cook himself. This is it.

Despite the image he liked to affect, Cook was a prolific writer who penned countless outrageous sketches, plus heaps of hilarious articles. Some of these pieces have never been published before and many have only ever been seen or heard, rather than read.

This collection gathers together the treasures of Cook's comic career, from school and university via 'Beyond the Fringe', alongside Alan Bennett, Jonathan Miller and Dudley Moore, to his surreal, satirical journalism for Private Eye. Illustrated with his own drawings this book is a collection of the wit, humour and genius of Peter Cook."
