  • The Incompleat Pogo

    Walt Kelly

    Paperback (Simon and Schuster, March 15, 1954)
    Publisher's Note: "We had a secretary here, briefly, who answered the phone one day when Walt Kelly was calling and said in a sprightly voice, 'Yes, Mr. Kelly, is it about anything?' The same question could be applied with effect to the great majority of the 12,000 books published this year in America. Trying it on with this one, the answer appears to be, if you are in Congress or a lawyer, in the affirmative. Otherwise, yes. It isn't about everything, just some things. That's why it is called The Incompleat Pogo. The Compleat Pogo will have to wait for a few thousand years when we know the answers to everything instead of just getting around, as we are now, to a foggy idea of what some of the questions are."
