Description: HERE —complete and unexpurgated—are two books that have left their mark on thousands of dazed customers up and down the land: to wit, How To Tell Your Friends from the Apes and How To Become Extinct, both crammed with this author's zoological-philosophical fun at the top of its bent. Person: exposed to their contents become Cuppy-conscious almost instantaneously. That is, they go around in a state of literary slap-happiness that lasts for indefinite periods — sometimes for months, even years. This volume takes its name from one of the most annoying of the creatures described in the chapter "Perfectly Damnable Birds." Says the author: "They do not like to be called Bustards, but that is what they are just the same." P. S. The Great Bustard is supposed to be extinct in some regions. To Mr. Cuppy that's a laugh. He knows different. This special edition of THE GREAT BUSTARD AND OTHER PEOPLE by Will Cuppy has been made available to the Armed Forces of the United States through an arrangement with the original publisher, Murray Hill Books, Inc., New York. Editions for the Armed Services, Inc., a non-profit organization established by the Council on Books in Wartime
