     First Edition, Atlantic Monthly Press, 1995, Hardback with removable protective plastic wrap - Humour - 341 pp.

     Now America's most provocative (and conservative) satirist - O'Rourke was at one time a raving pinko, with the scab on his bleeding heart to prove it. Through twenty-five years of his writing, Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence, and a Bad Haircut guides us on the journey that has taken O'Rourke from the lighthearted fun of the revolutionary barricades to the serious business of the nineteenth hole.
      "P.J. O'Rourke remains the funniest man in print. This book confirms that he has been much longer than we thought' - Ikon
'P.J. O'Rourke is routinely billed as "America's premier political humorist" and, for once, it is a claim that is difficult to dispute . . . few other humorists rival O'Rourke for simple comic density' - Guardian
'It is not fanciful to think of him as the heir to Swift and Orwell . . . journalism as relentlessly funny as it is deceptively shrewd' - Melody Maker '
Age and Guile contains enough firecracker wit to uphold his reputation as America's greatest prose comedian' - Financial Times
'O'Rourke remains the wittiest member of the herd' - Daily Telegraph
