Robinson (history, College of Mount St. Joseph) explores the evolution of the tripartite relationship between comedic performance, the American public, and the American presidency from the faux lectures of Artemus Ward during Lincoln's tenure to the present, although special emphasis is placed on the middle half of the 20th century, which the author identifies as the period that witnessed the development of modern understandings of the place of laughter in relation to the politics of the American presidency.
