“Spoof is stronger than fiction” says For Better of For Worse humorist Lynn Johnston, and in Never Stand Behind A Loaded Horse, Leacock merit medallist Gordon Kirkland drives the point home with funny-bone accuracy.

Kirkland’s syndicated newspaper column is no stranger to Canadian and US audiences, and in this premium collection, Kirkland fans will find it all.

Drawing humour out of everyday situations such as trying to stay awake while on an all-night drive through the mountains, or the skewed memory of a long-lost office affair, Kirkland keeps the lines rolling and the laughs churning.

I just wouldn't want to be married to him!”
