Out of the tens of thousands of books published every year, a significant proportion are unintentionally funny or just plain loopy. 'Fish Who Answer the Telephone and Other Bizarre Books' brings these choice works together between two covers. The contents of many of these titles are no less mind-boggling -- from illustrations of different types of barbed wire, to the advice contained in 'Whippings and Lashings' ("always use ropes or cords of suitable thickness" and "do not fumble or use fancy methods"), the oddness collected here is unrivalled. Some of the most unusual book jackets ever created are reproduced in full-colour, along with a selection of the most extraordinary book descriptions ever written.
