Books with author Harold Jones

All of material in this book was written by my Granddad, Harold Sands, who sadly passed away in 2004. He always loved to think of jokes and he wrote most of them down in a little, red notebook which was passed down to me – something I will always treasure.This volume is a selection of some of the material from that little, red book. Always one to marvel at newfangled technology, he would be absolutely amazed to think of his work being published and available around the world for other people to enjoy and hopefully laugh at (although no-one ever laughed as much at his jokes as he did!)Granddad’s (always clean) humour of choice was the pun, which was usually demonstrated in a couple of ways – funny book titles and fictional experiences in different kinds of occupations. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I have over the years.As well as trying to brighten someone’s day, one of the reasons for compiling this volume was to raise money for FWT, a children’s orphanage in Southern India (visit www.faithwelfaretrust.org) which was very close to my granddad’s heart – all commission from the sale of this book will go to this UK registered charity.

Excerpt from The Regular Swiss Round: In Three TripsThe following little book has grown out of the Journal of the First Trip, which was used in lectures for our Reading Room at St. Luke's, and then published in the Leisure Hour under the title of The Regular Swiss Round.The Second Trip served the same purposes, and the Third, after doing duty at our Institute, is now printed for the first time.All are carefully revised, and as the record of the two trips which appeared separately were found useful by some tourists and pleasant by friends who stayed at home, I hope that their united publication may prove equally acceptable.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
