One of the few books concerned solely with the humor of a single state, this volume includes samples of what North Carolinians have laughed at – and with – from 1709 to the present. It is a rich anthology of Tar Heel anecdotes, homespun quips, hilarious stories, folklore, exaggerations, and observations. In this wide range of humor, Walser has provided a valuable recording of American folklore and the social history of North Carolina.
