Teaser Tuesday: The Emergency Sasquatch Ordinance by Kevin Underhill


No puppet shows without a license. I imagine that the ban on unlicensed puppet shows in private homes is very rarely enforced, but the fact remains that performing such a show "in any house" would technically be illegal in Delaware[.]"

-- The Emergency Sasquatch Ordinance: And Other Real Laws that Human Beings Actually Dreamed Up by Kevin Underhill.

This book about strange-but-true laws is full of entertaining bits of political and legal trivia about oddball laws, starting in ancient times, but mostly focusing on laws in the United States.

It is written by a lawyer -- a lawyer who writes a legal humor blog -- but it is not written for lawyers. It would make a great gift for any political history buff or trivia fan with a goofy sense of humor.





Teaser Tuesdays is hosted by Jenn at A Daily Rhythm, where you can find the official rules for this weekly event.
