Publisher's note

To mark his 100th birthday, Bob Hope, along with his daughter Linda, compile hundreds of jokes he has told throughout the years interweaving how they reflected his own life.

Annotation

The late Bob Hope had a career that stretched from the glory years of vaudeville to the advent of the Internet. His jokes, which were methodically filed away over the years, are put to good use by Hope and his daughter Linda in MY LIFE IN JOKES, a compendium of Hope humor illustrating the comedian's colorful life, from his birth in 1903 in Eltham, a suburb of London, to his later years as the elder statesman of American comedy in Hollywood. Ranging from early cornball banter to the sharply self-deprecating wit that became his specialty, these examples from an apparently bottomless wellspring of mirth transport us by turns through vaudeville, makeshift stages in war-torn Europe and Vietnam, the glitter of the Academy Awards, and the cultural turmoil of the late 1960s. Almost as effective at conjuring the spirit of the man as conventional biography, MY LIFE IN JOKES is a fitting tribute to one of the great comics of the 20th century.
