James Grover Thurber, who lived from 1894-1961, was an American cartoonist, author, humorist, journalist, playwright, and celebrated wit. Thurber was best known for his cartoons and short stories such as "The Catbird Seat," and "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," a story of a hen-pecked husband who imagines that he is the Captain of ship in a ferocious storm, a surgeon performing a delicate operation, always a 'cool, confident' man when in reality his wife tells him how to drive, how to eat, where to park, what to say and what to do! His stories were frequently published in the NEW YORKER Magazine. His stories celebrated the comic frustrations and eccentricities of ordinary people. 430 pages. I offer Combined shipping.
