Funny way to be a hero

Fisher, John, 1945-2013
Book
First published in 1973 when he was in his late 20s, John Fisher's 'Funny Way to be a Hero' is regarded as the finest book ever written on 20th century comedians and comedy. Fisher went on to become a friend to many of the subjects written about in his book. Forty years later he has revised and expanded the original from this perspective and added six new chapters.
