A Pleasant Conceited Comedy: Wherein Is Showed How A Man May Choose A Good Wife From A Bad is a play written by Joshua Cooke and first published in 1824. The play is a romantic comedy that explores the theme of marriage and the importance of choosing the right partner. The story revolves around a young man named Jack, who is in search of a wife. He is presented with two options - a virtuous but plain woman named Susan and a beautiful but deceitful woman named Lucy. Through a series of humorous events, Jack learns the true nature of each woman and ultimately makes the right choice. The play is filled with witty dialogue, amusing characters, and a happy ending. It is a lighthearted and entertaining read that offers a glimpse into the social norms and values of the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
