This annotated edition of "Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town" includes: A biography of Stephen Leacock By Peter Gilchrist McArthur (1923).

Leacock brings the quirks, eccentricities and flaws of these everyday people to life in the most humorous way. Every corner of Mariposa has a story to tell! Quoting Leacock: "Mariposa is not a real town. On the contrary, it is about seventy or eighty of them. You may find them all the way from Lake Superior to the sea, with the same square streets and the same maple trees and the same churches and hotels."Show book
