Writing in 1924, the critic Gilbert Seldes described the newspaper column as the 'most sophisticated' of the minor arts. Following the success of his PENGUIN BOOK OF INTERVIEWS, Christopher Silvester has compiled an anthology of columnists which covers gossip, sport, humour and much else, including work by Ambose Bierce, George Ade, G. K. Chesterton, Frank Sullivan, Damon Runyon, Walter Winchell, O.O. McIntyre, Tom Driberg, Auberon Waugh, Jimmy Breslin, Shaun Johnson, Dave Barry, George F. Will, Ellen Goodman, George Frazier, Ian Mackay and Alan Watkins.
