Summary: Great work, poor copy editing
Review: This is a completely enjoyable collection that keeps me smiling as I read. Unfortunately, it seems the proof reader relied on a computer's spell-checker program. It let him down.The spelling errors surprised me. I guess I may have spotted an error or two in other books, but I seem to keep stumbling on them in this book. They're distracting and it seems almost sinful to have let them appear in this wonderful collection. Mr. Nash's insight, humor and unique form are well represented here in the 650 rhymes, verses, lyrics and poems. They are grouped by general subject matter. Thumb through the contents and see what you're in the mood for. Nash will make you smile or even laugh out loud.

Summary: Enquiry only
Review: This is not a review for which I apologise in advance but I really do need to know if Ogden Nash wrote the poem read in the movie Four Weddngs & a Funeral starts "Stop all the Clocks".Can someone reply? Thank you Dawne Oosthuizen, Durban, South Africa. e-mail dawneoos@dbn.lia.net

Summary: This large poetry collection has no index.
Review: This large book contains hundreds of Nash's brilliant poems, but somebody seems to have removed the index, making the book useless. I sent it back
