Sorry, but I couldn't resist that title. Richard Lederer's Get Thee to a Punnery: An Anthology of Intentional Assaults Upon the English Language is neither a footnote-heavy treatise on literary puns through the ages (although he quotes a few from Shakespeare). Neither is it a collection of groan-inducing puns (although it has a few of those as well).Instead, Lederer takes a middle ground of sorts and breaks puns down into a number of categories. Strange, but I had never thought of puns as being anything but a low form of humor before. It's like finding out your crazy old uncle who was forever trying to get you to "pull my finger" had once been the Royal Court Jester.I could have probably done without some of the exercises in the book which seemed like unnecessary padding. But that's just my preference. The rest of the book made for an enjoyable and fairly quick read.

I read this guy's other book, Anguished English, and had a lot of fun with it. It was a collection of situations where bad English was used in hilarious ways.I thought that Get Thee To A Punnery would be more of the same, except with puns.Instead I got a book full of blank spots where you guess the best word to make the sentence a pun.It might be fun for some people, but I really just kind of wanted a joke book of sorts for myself. There are some good puns in there actually listed, and it appears to be a good way to make yourself more aware of how to have pun with the language.But if you're already good at making people groan, then you probably won't need it for this purpose.

A wonderful book for every logophile, full of information on the different types of puns, followed by 'exercises' to test your brain. Fun, fun book. I'll be keeping this one open, working on it between other reads. (works great on Kindle - I just write my answers in a notebook and I'll check them when I'm finished.

I and my sons have read many of Richard Lederer's books (one of my sons even went to the prep school where he formerly taught, but alas, he was already gone) and this book is as delightful as the others. My 8 1/2 year old youngest son loves it and I like hearing his favorites, like "What doe you get when you cross an octopus and a dragon?"I'll let you look it up.

I read this book years ago and nearly broke my ribs laughing. However, when I purchased it as a Kindle book, I found it extremely difficult to work out the "quizzes" when it came to matching the word with the punderful meaning. Unfortunately, a Kindle doesn't let you switch back and forth between pages easily. I got so frustrated, I gave up on it. On this one, get the book, not the kindle edition.

I enjoyed the historical overview the author added to his humor.

I like reading Richard Lederer, and generally enjoy his books. But it seemed to me that most of the writing in this volume was a rehash of content I've read in his other works. There is also quite a bit of obvious, old puns that were not new to me. The delight of a good pun is timeless, but repetition isn't funny. Glad to have read this book, but it is not a keeper.

This book was not nearly as good as Anguished English. For people who get a kick out of puns, it's great, but otherwise, don't bother. It is mostly a list of "complete the pun." If you don't like that kind of thing, it is a waste of money. If you do, it is gold. I don't so I don't rate it very high.
