A Book of Limericks is a collection of humorous and witty poems written by Edward Lear and originally published in 1888. The book contains over 100 limericks, each consisting of five lines and following a strict rhyme scheme. The limericks are known for their clever wordplay and absurd imagery, often featuring animals or characters in silly situations. Some of the most famous limericks in the book include There was an Old Man with a Beard and There was an Old Person of Dover. Lear's limericks have become a staple of English literature and are still enjoyed by readers of all ages today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
