The Humorist: Being Essays Upon Several Subjects is a book written by Thomas Gordon and first published in 1725. It is a collection of humorous essays that cover a wide range of topics, including politics, religion, and society. The essays are written in a satirical and witty style, with Gordon using humor to comment on the absurdities and follies of his time. Some of the essays are directed at specific individuals or institutions, while others are more general in nature. The book was well-received in its time and is still considered a classic of English literature today. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural attitudes of the early 18th century, as well as offering timeless insights into the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
